I love your post! Congrats on you successful weight loss and so happy your life has gotten easier! My surgery date was March 5,13 and have to say I have been on so much pain in my incisions I lost track of my goals to a healthier life. Your post was a wonderful reminder. Btw--so far loving the feeling of my double chin getting smaller. It's noticeable when I lay down with my IPad and type. God bless! Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013

I got mine 4 days after surgery cramps and all! It was like 10x worse because i was on blood thinners. Im hoping this may speed up my menopause

I know right? I was told no pasta, bread or rice. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013

How did the soup sit with you? Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013

I'm a week after surgery and still in so much pain I think about regrets all day. Add the not being able to eat and diarrhea every day and it sure does not help. I'm trying so hard to think ahead and mentally get back to the excitement of a new life. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013

Nairali-I'm a week out and feel the same way. Although I have to admit I have yet to be able to do what I am supposed to do. Today is the first day that I have not had diarrhea. I can't drink anything but Water so have not been able to get any protein in. Today I got some egg drop Soup because it was the only thing I could even think about eating/drinking. Thankfully the water and soup stayed with me today so same diet tomorrow I guess. At least I'm getting some protein. I think you will be fine once your body really heals. Keep doing what you are supposed to do with the protein I'm sure you will feel better. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013

Mine too and that is where i hurt so bad! Has to be a muscle because it feels like I'm being ripped open whenever i sit or lay down. Hopefully the indent will go away and our whole stomach will look like a "6-pack" in a few months!!

No I'm sure its not. It's one of the openings that has bothered me since day one. Looks ok like not infected but killer whenever i move. Waaaaahhh lol

Takes a real man to admit that Steeevo!! God bless you during your surgery. I'm hoping it will be worth it lol.

3 days post op and still in so much pain. Can't tell if I'm being a wuss since i see all of these other people on here saying they are just fine at this point. But I'm almost in tears every time I get up to go to the bathroom. Not sure what to do. The nurses in the hospital just blew me off as i felt like a stitch was being ripped out everytime i moved. Ugh!

Hi all, march 5th surgery day and have to say I'm miserable. I have so much pain I don't know what to do. I'm getting better at getting up and walking around but an hour before its time for my meds I'm in tears. I never thought of myself as a wuss but then again have never had surgery. They changed my meds from Diluted--im probably spelling that wrong to codine and its not working and where as good. Ugh!

Been waiting in pre op for about 3 hours now waiting for the operating room to be free. Met with anesthesiologist and doctor already. I'm hungry and thirsty trying not to think about my mother and daughter in the cafeteria eating a steak and cheese and fries! Lol

Thank you so much loveme! The prayer brought tears to my eyes. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk / surgery date March 5, 2013
