    Gallstones?

    hello, did you get answers to your pain? im 9 mo out and at 6 mo dr did a sonogram and i didnt have gallstones, at my 9 mo visit just about a week ago, she said she wanted me to get a hyda scan, she said that your gallbladder han ahve 2 issues, 1. u can get gall stones. and when u pass a stone very painfull, 2. the gallbladder can malfunction. so the hyda scan is a dye test sonogram, that looks at the actual function and they make the gallbladder function and they can watch it. i wake up in the night, by upper belly gets hard , bloated, and hurts, i cant sleep, can last for hrs, then very bad painfull gas, i also get pain in my liver. i will get the hyda scan dec 31. i hope my issue will get resoved, my vsg dr would remove it

    Show some skin?

    my daughter is 22yrs old, she has a 2yr old son, so she has strech marks from baby and fat, she has lost 100 lbs, and her stomach dosnt hang, (doesnt sag over pubic area) she still has about 30 lbs to loose but as time goes on her skin tightens up. im 45 and my skin dsont sag, im a size 2 pant, when i get on hands and knees ya u can see skin hang down but standing nothing hangs its all tightening up and im 9 months out. good luck
  5. you look wonderful, i know jsut how u feel, but the fat suit has come off and ppl can see what a wonderful person you really are. loosing the fat dosnt change who we are it just makes us more noticable. great job, keep it up, rember its a life style not a diet. my sergon told me at my 9mo visit that his first VSG was 7 years ago, and he has come back wiht all the wt regained and now getting the 2nd half of the surgery. so that was a wake up for me to keep eating my protien meals. i didnt have as much to loose as you, but i went from bmi 36 pants 16/18 to bmi 23 pants size 2. shopping has never been more fun

    You Know You're A Sleever When...

    When u don't have anymore friends cause u lost more weight than them. When fat ppl hate you and the once smaller r bigger than u turn their nose up cause u can wear a 4 or 6. And that's all that's left on sale. A lady threw my size at me gave me dirty look and walked away. It's not all fun being thin again
