I experienced some pain for the first few days. I was given pain meds to help control it though. The pain doesn’t last long and the surgery is well worth it!

Its life one little candy bar is not going to kill you! You must enjoy something sometime! But that does not mean eat the whole dang bag! I hit the little Halloween candy two or three times a week, But in the past i would hit the 4 pound bag of M and M s - That was the issue not the 5 little ones a few times a week. You have to learn to balance and enjoy life, So my feeling is you have sinned and I will bless you and forgive your sins! any other confessions you would like to tell us!

With liquid diet, then soft foods diet, etc., how did you not lose wt? We're not even allowed bread or beans or fruit with skins or rice until afterc4 mos. The average is to lose 30 lbs in the first 6 wks. Having sugar and eating everytime there's room in your banana stomach will stop wt loss. You need to wat 2-3 hrs between meals.

My wife has been on a low carb diet the last 4 weeks. I do the cooking most meals so have been cooking meals for us that are low carb. This has helped a lot and lets me plan myself what i am going to eat

No you filled the tank to capacity and it is letting you know - You should be drinking them by the ounce not the glass, I suggest till you know your limits that you drink 2 oz every so often about 6 times a day You will get the hang of it - Slow down and take your time

I have been taking meds for bipolar for a number of years. Took MMPI-2 as part of my psych eval and showed I am totally "normal". Really shocked my psychologist. I will stay on meds though to be sure I stay stable. If you have mental health issues, they just want to be sure that you are: (1) stable on meds and continue under treatment (2) Addressing any eating problems. (3) You have adequate social support (family, friends, church, etc.) I was pretty stressed about psych eval because my history. Don't stress about it. If you have a current therapist, see if your bariatric center will accept psych eval by him/her. Who knows you better? Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

It will not disqualify you as long as you are receiving treatment and the issues are well managed. welcome and good luck!

Doctors told me when it happened b4 .it was normal just need to chew better or eat slowly and this is gases case in colon or something.. This time it was more than 3 hours .. I felt it was eternity

I really thought we had put all the "you are so skinny, are you sick" comments behind us. Apparently not. My mom, MY MOM! came over today with the specific intention to tell me that she thinks I am too skinny and to stop losing weight. I had dropped off some dessert a her place the other day and she said she had to come over to tell me that she is worried because she thinks that I am even skinnier than over the Xmas holidays. First, I stopped losing weight 6+ months ago. Second, I am actually 6 lbs heavier than I was over xmas (I had lost some weight after my PS, and have since gained it back), so I don't know what she is talking about. Third, I look awesome. 🙄
