  9. I really dislike sleeping on my back. I wake up so tense and with muscle aches. Did anyone find a way to sleep more comfortable. Im a tummy sleeper mostly and also like to sleep on my right side but it feels like all my organs shift when i do that lol so I keep it safe.

  11. Hey guys. Im 23 and just decided to change my life. On june 29 2013 I had my surgery. My highest weight was 230 and ive been obese since I was about 8 years old. My biggest problem was always my arms. They were morbidly obese compared to thw rest of my body and getting ridiculed by kids was a def punch to my confidence. Growing up I could never use a short sleeve shirt and that was pretty much my main issue. My body was some what okay in weight. I was a 9/10 til I met my best friend when I was 16' she was going thru a rough time and I was there to console her but I got stuck with her eating habits. In a year I went up to a size.16 and when I finally decided to do something.about it. I went down to a 14. My highest weight has always been 230 but I could never go below 215. My nutritionist said it was because I ate too littlw. I would be satisfied with one big meal a day. Big no no. I decided to do my surgery in venezuela. And the month I was here before my surgery I started at 227 and managed to lose 10 lbs just by eating healthy and three times a day. Ive.been three days post op I havent weighed by self yet but my family says they could aee a difference already. I take my drain out tomorrow. Minor pain. I have a concern tho my doc didnt tell me to take any Vitamins. I will ask him tomorrow but did anyone start vitamins later on?and also sis anyone have a problem with thwir arms like me? How were your results in them losing weight post surgery. Btw I love this forum so much great advice and support!!! [ATTACH]14906[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]14907[/ATTACH]

    Is this normal?

    Im 3 days post op and Ive been having the same problem!!! When I woke up after surgery I sounded like I was having an asthma attack from the panic and the pain. I could barely breathe. The first day after I had chest pains constantly from the gasses and all the soreness but walking really helped relieve them. Now im still a bit sore on my left lung and my throat but each day it gets better. Good luck!

    Hmm good to know I was worried maybe I missed one of my doctors orders. Besides my surgeon I was dealing with like 3-5 different doctors. Hard to keep up... but thank you.
