It's up to you, My surgeon recommends using two forms of BC for the first 18 months after surgery because of the increased fertility rate. It's really dangerous to both mom and baby if you get pregnant in the first 18 months because of body changes and limited nutrition coming in.

Oh I thought you said define real hunger. I am sorry. Talk to your nut see if there is something that you can do

What app are you using

Do you feel in your stomach hunger?

Is it head hunger or physical hunger?

I am. Our hormones are completely out of wack. Dont beat yourself up.

My parents were the same way before my surgery. Every morning they would show me another horror story, And I'd show them 10 good stories. Three days before my surgery I put my foot down and told them that this is what I'm doing, they can be supportive or they can keep quiet or leave. It's really frustrating and awful. But ultimatums are sometimes the only way to get results.

Really? My lady doc didnt mention weight with the depo

So, this morning I feel like my entire body is tired. I have very little energy, anytime I sit too long I sleep. Any advice to get some energy?

My nut said rule of 26. 26 chews, swallow, 26 seconds.repeat

Its called ruiminating, I think, its often linked with bulimia. Its a common thing that bariatric folks do.

Cream of chickwn soup. I want real food. T-T

I took a shower this morning, it was a little difficult, I have to step over the tub, and I thought I was going to slip, It was stressful. but the shower itself was nice. I took a walk, had a nap, and a couple of visitors and some juice, and I feel better now.

Water Aerobics?

IT took two weeks for my insurance approval, Then, I got my date the day the surgeon's office got the letter.

I was told forever.

In the recovery room, I remember being in pain, and trying to get the nurse's attention, my mouth was too dry to talk. They finally gave me pain meds and I went back to sleep, I think like an hour later I woke up and they were talking about moving me to my room. I fell back asleep and woke up again and they started moving my IV and stuff to the bed and rolled me out, they hit like three corners on the way, and it hurt like hell.

That's good to know, I was just making sure I wasn't dying. Lol. I'll take a walk then nap again. Thank you!

I'm four days out. today is the first day I'm feeling this drained. So sleeping for a million years is normal?

My friend who stayed with me while I was in the hospital woke me up from a medicated coma and said "Ashley, your tummy is singing me the song of it's people" And then I cried from laughing too hard.

Ask all the questions you need to! There is no such thing as a stupid question when it concerns your life! I'm excited for you!

I can't wait to call and cancel my Lane Giant account! IT'll be a glorious day!

The two weeks at Christmas should be sufficient. What grade do you teach? What insurance do you have? They may not require the 6 month diet, Mine didn't, I have BC/BS. Do you have a documented history of dieting? Weight watchers, nutrisystem, etc? A lot of times doctors will push for those to be counted. Even then, I waited a year, I was held up with the psych evaluation, and I honestly think that the year helped me understand and prepare for the surgery. Best of luck.
