The sock things are to prevent DVT. They work like blood pressure cuffs while you sleep. My shake I decided to do full strength instead of watering down. A little harder to drink. Sip, sip, sip

Glad you all posted... my stomach rumbles, I wish I could pass the gas... starting liquid poops yesterday 2 days post op. I wish the gurgling would stop. -
Woke up at 4am went for walk at 6, drank protein shake as directed, walked again at 8. So sore and achy. Plan on drinking broths and water all day. I potty every hour and just sit and trickle. Bored and don't feel up to anything.... sigh.

Leaving in 10 minutes... not as nervous today probably because I am half asleep. Check back and let you know how it goes!

I was wondering if anyone knew of brands of miso so I can send DH to store? He can only get what I specifically say... sucha sweet, but concrete man.

I got home from surgery around noon. My husband made me walk 15 minutes before getting in to bed. Then I woke up to having to use the restroom. He didn't answer his phone and I started freaking out. I made it and heard him in kitchen. I called over and over and he answered but didn't come. I just burst into tears and haven't stopped yet. He is hitching about finding sugar free jello. I love him. Had no idea his bedside manner sucked..., not sure why I am so teary.

He was told I could get blood clots and have a stroke. His mom had a stroke.,, he was also told that my lungs partially collapsed and i have to suck on this breathing thing... I times out of ten I am ok with him pushing me... then I lose my head and cry, calling him mean. I m really not myself.

Wow that sounded pretty drugged. Heh. I think the pain I feel is from hernia repair. I am having no trouble drinking warm or cold. Just those muscles under my l left chest area hurt like a biatch. Codeine in 1.5 hours -

Has anyone become single as a result of their weight loss surgery?
Seymour1971 replied to pinkbunies's topic in Singles Forum
I met my hubby at 18... I was FINE FINE. We went our own ways for 20 years and got married 4 years ago.. he still loved me 100 lbs Heavier. He is quietly supportive of the WLS. I love him and we have never been happier. I wouldn't mind if men flirted more, and I don't worry about my straying eyes. Even at this weight I have guys trying to flirt. Not tempted at all.
