Sheesh I want implants but husband says no... He is cra cra if you ask me lol Oh the clothes I would wear Hehe To dream a dream...

Yay Shannon!! So happy for you and you look fantastic!!!

Wow!! You look amazing!! In only 6 weeks there is a great transformation!! Congrats you're beautiful!

I would think the sleeve would be more than the plication. Having them the same price on other peoples paperwork seems to affirm it must have been human error not a scam. Best wishes on your surgery!!!

Sooooo pretty!!!!

The site doesn't say how much it cost or how to get it?

Thank you

Lila, you look so good! I'm glad you are doing better! Hugs!

Did he leave or is he being a jerk? I'm so sorry this is an emotional time just adjusting to your new diet requirements and healing. You have us here on VST and we will support you. Perhaps just give him time to work out his feelings, whatever has got him so unsupportive, maybe lay low and just come here for help. Maybe he is afraid you'll leave him? Is there anyway to rekindle something between you both perhaps just small acts of kindness could get him back on track. I'm so sorry this is happening but maybe it will pass? I am wishing you all the best!!!

Here is the link of the surgery I watched... http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=EMlxhICaG0s&NR=1&feature=endscreen&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Ffeature%3Dendscreen%26NR%3D1%26v%3DEMlxhICaG0s

I'm wondering as well. I sure hope you find out. I did watch a video of a live VSG surgery and I remember when I was watching...thinking to myself when they push in the instruments they come sooooo close to our organs and intestines. I wish I could find the post here on VST so you could watch it as well. It's very interesting. Have you had a chance to watch a surgery performed?

Popcorn is dangerous that early!! It has hulls that do not digest well and can irritate and sometimes cause infection in the suture line. Please refer to your Drs. guidelines You can have it later on. Better to be healed!!

I had a hernia repair across from my belly button and also a hysterectomy with endometriosis scraped from my bladder, intestines, etc and fibroid tumors removed and bladder repair all prior to my WLS. I listed them as prior surgeries and that was it. I'm sure I had lots of scar tissue. My stomach looked like I had been in a knife fight and lost badly. I am so thankful I came through it and I am so sorry for people who suffer complications. I do want to add I have 6 small incisions verses the 5 most have, perhaps my Dr. looked around prior to the actual removal? I'm unsure but my surgery was very standard, didn't take very long to get in and out of the OR

I just call mine sleevie... Sleevie likes this, sleevie doesn't like that... Drives my family crazy haha So of course I keep saying it

I believe most people were answering pepples555's post. -__- I wonder about the original poster as well and some after.

So happy you're getting relief...relax and take it easy Blackie rides will have to wait

Atul, I am unsure of the drain color...as far as I was told it should be clear or go to the ER If you can message these people they may have more help for you as they suffered from leaks: 4aLongerLife jasleeve RawrrAshleex3 I'm hoping you find out as much information as possible. You and your mother need support and we are here for you. Sometimes you just have to keep posting til you get the person you need... As far as I have seen, most patients with leaks stop taking liquid and food by mouth and have TPN. I pray someone sees our post and will contact you!! Please continue to reach out here..I will try my best to help you find answers! -Lisa

Hehe you all made me laugh... Funky chicken, monkeys falling and Irish and English men passing pubs... Is Liz the only one on medicine here <3

Welcome to VST!! Best wishes on your journey. I'm looking forward to hearing more about your journey.

Yes I remember having to cut my protein shakes with extra extra water the first several weeks. Best of luck!!

Beautiful! You look really good, Congrats on your success!!

My heart goes out to all of you who have suffered and/or are currently suffering. Thank you for being here on VST

Just meditate on shopping for smaller clothes and running on the beach or sidewalk if your in Dallas like me. Hehe!!

Glenda, did you have your surgery at Forest Park? I would call the number on the paperwork and speak to someone. Perhaps Dr. Nicholson (sp?) hasn't been informed of your pain. I'm willing to bet he would want to see you. I am hoping he would! He is a very well known Dr. Have only heard good things about him. Try to reach him! You shouldn't be hurting like this

Oops I'm letting it rest now! Sorry
