thanks for the reply i was freaking out

your body probably just grabbed those extra calories and stored them . . its a survival mechanism you were starving your self and when you started putting stuff back into your body reacts by storing them in case you start starving again. don't panic ! easier said then done i know but your still recovering concentrate on that put away the scales

hey have a great time x bet this will be your first time loosing weight on a vacation ! let us know how you get on x

i think you need an anti biotic i had to go on two antibiotics to clear my main incision it was red and had yellow/orange goo around it. i also had to keep it covered amd not use soap on it. just disinfectant spray

hey i think nearly every one does this . i started a thread a few weeks before my surgery saying the same thing. i think its because even though we are over weight we were still kinda dieting every day you know having some kind of control over our eating so as not to put on more. but as soon as surgery starts coming closer or brain flicks a switch telling us go wild it will be all over soon. i put on about 8 or 9 pound in about two weeks amd all my fat clothes were getting too tight Thats when i had to reign it in and stop eating like crazy i didn't want to waste money on bigger clothes. i started my pre op diet a few days early too i had enough of the over eating . . . . don't know if this helps but your absolutely normal . . . .

thinking of you amd keeping you in my prayers x

ok only sleeved since November 19th still away from home as i was sleeved Im Mexico so don't have a clue what i weigh but getting out of the shower tonight my boobs were definitely bigger then the belly Im thrilled and with no bra on . i guess this is my official NSV and Im hoping there is still a little swelling around my tummy still so its only gonna get better x

very good lol

it could be a few things are you having bm if not then that could be your pain or i found cos your stomach muscles are not working cos of surgery you could be using the lower tummy muscles to compensate and that could be the pain. other thing to think of is it could be totally un related un this surgery what would you have thought it was if you hadn't been sleeved yet ?

hi girls just checking in with you all un see how every one is doing ? i had my stitches out today the one my drain was in is a little open and looks slightly inflamed so my doctor gave me a second dose of antibiotics . that should sort it i hope what kinds of stuff are you guys drinking/eating Im still on liquids i can't stomach the Protein shakes so Im drinking two ready made slim fast shakes and a bowl of Soup for dinner. an actimel and three or four glasses of Water or juice and tea.

hi i had my surgery Monday Im Mexico i traveled from Ireland Thats around 16 hours Im the air i am heading home today day six and i feel great but i think i could have done it day four if i had to. just make sure you wear those flight socks and keep those legs moving x best of luck

hey glad your doing good Im day two and feel like I've been run over by a bus . your giving me hope ill be back to some sort of normal in a few days

hi guys Im just feeling up to writing now. had surgery at 5pm yesterday and was rushed back in at midnight for a revision all my insision bleeding heavy and my drain bottle had to be changed every 30 min to an hour my blood pressure dropped.
