    Extreme weakness

    Well I don't really wanna call my surgeon on primary doctor because I just recently moved an hour away from both of them. I haven't had a chance to get a new doctor up here yet

    Amazed!

    Well I have to say I lost 20 pre op and the rest post op. I think pre op I lost weight quickly because I cut out almost all sugar and soda and bread and only drank water. I am at a stall right now, I haven't lost anything in a week.
  13. Had surgery 1-22-13 at 254 and I'm 225 now. When I started this process in November I was 280. So in total I have lost 55 pounds.

    Excited!

    I guess my only tip is follow ur doctors rules. There in place for a reason. My biggest challenge right now is head hunger. I'm physically never hungry and most cases don't feel full. Mentally prepare for that. Don't give in to the head hunger.

    Pain!

    I went to bed last night and shortly after I got this really bad sharp burning intense pain underneath my lower right incision and the pain hasn't gone away. The more I move the worse the pain gets. I'm three weeks out. Is this normal?

    Pain!

    It looks swollen. I don't think it's gas. It burns even lightly touching the area.
  19. I'm three weeks out. Are we allowed to drink orange juice?

    January 2013 Post Op

    My doctor only told me nothing more than 5 pounds for a week and than go back to normal. My son is 22 months old and weighs 35 pounds and I've been carrying/picking him up since after the first week. My right side of my stomach gets really bad pain if i move the wrong way or turn over. It's like a intense burning stinging sensation. I assume its my muscle healing. How long till that's gone?

    runny nose

    I was told that some people get runny noses when they get full. That its there bodies way of saying your done.
  23. I'm in the soft food phase and were wondering about pickles. Are we allowed to have them?
  24. Any experience dehydration early on post op? I'm 10 days out and I don't feel well at all and can barely drink or eat. I'm worried I'm gonna get dyhydrated
  25. So I'm 9 days post op and today I went to my doctor because I have a blood clot on my forearm, which they think is from my Iv. Hurts so badly. The doctor said its superficial, which is good because it won't travel. Has anyone else experience this?
