Big As Life

this is so normal...I had the same thing...I had no idea I had a hernia...my daughter had lap band on Wed..and she also had a hernia....this is very common...

read your post op instructions..what did your doctor order??

Ladies, Take a deep breath and just relax..the hard knot under the large incision ...it is your port...I felt the same thing and I called the doctor's office and the nurse just cracked up laughing...she said, " Honey, that is your port"

Honey, don't wait until tomorrow...I have had open heart sugery at 48 years old...please don't wait until tomorrow, call your local 911 and get some medical attention....You don't have to have any one type of symptom to be having a heart attack...every case is different....PLEASE CALL 911....

what is the PAPAYA ENZYME TABLET??? I have never heard of this....

good luck to you...I hope the surgery is everything you hoped it would be...as for me, it has been a real blessing..I have lost a total of 84 lbs in 24 months...I am totally happy with this...

don't beat yourself up...hang in there and just try to make better choices the next time...we have all fallen off the wagon a time or two....

hang in there...take one day at a time...

The fill is not painful...i was so scared...and after it was over i was so shocked...it does not hurt...you will be amazed at how painless it is...

No, you need to get more calories if you are working out 50 minutes a day..you are burning to many calories and this will stop your weight loss...you have to have enough calories or your body will think it is starving and it will start holding on and not burn any fat...don't skip meals, add calories to replace what you lose in working out...

Bless your heart...you are faced with multiple problems right now...the loss of your husbands job, the building of a new home, then trying to conceive...wow...okay...take a deep breath and just sit back and think about the pro's and con's...you are the only person that can make this decision...the surgery was a life saver for me...i would do it over again and again...i was a self pay...but truly worth every penny... I wish you all the luck in the world..i hope that all your dreams come true...but you know that only you can decide what is best for you and your husband...

That is great advice, barbara...she said it all....make good choices, and just take it one day at a time...
