Massags work but I'm going to try your method too. ~Leticia **SW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221**4 days post op: 10 lbs down**

Has anyone found that massaging your belly helps move the gas? ~Leticia **SW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221**4 days post op: 10 lbs down**

Oh wow... They sent you home with a pain patch. I wonder what medication it was. I would have loved a pain patch instead of pills. Sorry to hear it made you sick. ~Leticia **SW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221**4 days post op: 211**

4 days post op and I'm "almost" 100% ok. My tummy is a little sore 1/2 from surgery and 1/2 from my period. Slept with a heating pad last night and it improved things tremendously. I'm not taking liquid vicodine like most. That made me sick to my stomach so they gave my tablets of Nophen. I've been taking 2 but starting today I'm bring it down to one. My incissions are looking awesome. I get my staples out on Thursday. The only thing I can't do is twist my body because I'll feel it in my stomach... Like a tight soreness. But only if I do this. How's everyone else doing ?? ~Leticia **SW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221**4 days post op: 211**

I'm 3 days post op but yesterday when was discharged I came home and got straight in the bed. My mom placed at least 10 of the cough medicine cups on my night stand and filled them with Water, ice chips or crystal lite lemonade. My 1 year old is so observant and noticed how I would reach to the night stand for another drink every so often. So i finished the first round, got up to go to the bathroom and came back to another 10 cups filled. I got in the bed and started fiddling with my phone. My 1 year old went and got her stool, put it next to the night stand and starts throwing back my drinks like she was at a bar taking shots. When she got to the last drink she slammed it and and yelled "MORE"... RRRMMMAAAOOO I swear this little kid has an old soul. ~Leticia <br />**SW: 259**PreOp: 216** <br />**SURG: 3/21/13**Discharged @: 221**3 days post op: 212**

PLEASE HELP! How much longer were you able to pass gas after your surgery. *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

I had a hard night of gas pressure in my belly but around 4am I was able to finally pass gas. Around 9am I was able to release majority of thr rest of the gas and It's been so much better ~Leticia <br />**SW: 259**PreOp: 216** <br />**SURG: 3/21/13**Discharged @: 221**3 days post op: 212**

I cannot believe I started my period last night. Now I'm unable to determine which issue is hurting my stomach. ~Leticia **SW: 259**PreOp: 216** **SURG: 3/21/12**Discharged @: 221**4 days post op: 213**

Before surgery I juiced daily. My favorites combo is Kale, carrots, celery, cucumber, Apple, lemon. I was told after sugery I won't be able to juice. That it was hard to count the calories and it forces me to drink beyond the 15 ml Also... You strip the fiber when makes it harder to digest your meals. I'm going to ask my main surgeon tho. His physicians that see his patients said this *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

Where will your surgery be... I had a Debbie prep me for surgery *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

There are a lot of people in my support group that had a second WLS for the sane reason as you. Not sure what they had 1st then went to tho. *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

I order from Bariatric Advantage and if you push in the "validation code" of KAISER it will adjust all the prices by 20% and also give you free shipping. I'm not a Kaiser patient but they never asked me for an account number or anyything *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

EXCUSE ANY TYPOS ... THE LIQUID VICODINE HAS MY SITE BLURRY Hey Losers... My surgery was Thursday and I'm still in the hospital. I'm "suppose" to get released today. I'm not sure if I'm ready to go home.... I have 4 kids and even with help I know I'll naturally over do it. Well I arrived to the hospital ay 6 and they immediately began peeping ne. By 730am I was rolled to the basement where surgeries are performed.. I didn't walk into surgery... I was on a bed the entire time and they put me out before I was wheeled in. I woke up in my room. Apparently I was in recovery after but I don't remember.. My stomach was sensitive to the touch but not internally. The worse part was my catheter not voiding correctly. They had to come and play with the tubing every hour to get the urine to flow . My belly was sore from it. Drinking and logging seem like forever.. but I didn't it. Oh Em Gee... I did have an issue with the liquid vicodine. I started gagging and dry heaved vomited. I fell like I was ripping my internal staples. The freaking worth feeling ever. Walking was a breeze... My legs were fine my belly was just a little sore. This surgery is way more easier then I thought it would be. Each day gets better and better *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

4 hours until I'm checking in for surgery. My system is still dumping. I went from 219.4 to 213.0 ... By the time I wake up I'll probably will be lighter. Night night losers! *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

When was your surgery *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

Sooo .... I've poop'd 3lbs of junk and its still coming. I'm so surprised that the magnesium citrate doesn't have my tummy cramping and my Ass raw. I still haven't packed my bags and my surgery is in 10 hours. My honey wants to get grown and sexy with me and bump and grind for the last time for a week or two but I'm absolutely afraid that I'll give him a gift that keeps on giving.... The runs!!! *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

Awwww... thank you! I've been trying to pack the last 2 hours but I keep having to run back to the.bathroom with the "shits". This magnesium citrate is NO JOKE! I wasn't hungry today while on my clear liquid diet but the more I empty my poops the hungrier I'm becoming. *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

Packing for my surgery right now.. just drunk my magnesium citrate. It didn't taste too bad until the last gulp and I almost vomited it all back up. Whew! The Dr's office just called and changed my surgery from noon to 6am so now I'm trying to rethink my game plan but at least I don't have to go all day hungry. Other then this.. just waiting for the "shits" to come on. My stomach has already started bubbling. LOL *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*

I can't wait until tomorrow... My surgery! LOL *Surgery Scheduled 3/21/13*
