OMG that is hilarious!! You are too funny! Wow 6 months?!? I'm only 7 weeks post!!! Yikes! Now I'm not so sure! lol

Saw the dr. yesterday, & he seems to think it's just a suture I'm feeling as it's dissolving. I asked him what would cause the sharp pains, & he said the muscles responding to it. He didn't "feel" a hernia or seem concerned.. So hoping it goes away soon! Thanks for y'all's thoughts!!

I'm 6 weeks post op & have been having SHARP pains in my left side/area for days! When I laugh & certain movements.. I had the initial prolonged discomfort on my left side, which is normal. That stopped a few weeks ago.. This is new & I just want to know if anyone has had this and what was the reason?!?

I have been a sweet tea drinker my ENTIRE life!! I just KNEW I would never like/do Unsweet tea!! Until surgery.... My choice of "Fake Sugar" as I like to call it is EQUAL! I have no problem asking for unsweet tea as long as I have Equal!

You sound like me! :/ I'm down 20lbs & been the same for a week now! I'm trying not to worry about it, but it Sucks!! Unfortunately it's the first stall of many more to come... It's making me not want to eat anything! Planning to go for a walk tomorrow..

Move around! Burp as much as you can/need to! It will get stuck and hurt more in certain places, left side is the worst! The only way for it to move, is for you to move! Walk! & let it out however you have to! it took over a week for mine to finally clear out!

So I'm only 3 weeks out tomorrow & I swear this is still the hardest thing I've ever had to do! I had a meltdown Friday bc my coworkers were going to happy hour after work, & of course I can't Drink! I can't eat what I've been used to eating for 27 years, & hell I can't even have a salad either-which I want SO bad!! After talking to my Mom who is 10yrs post op, I've tried to think more positive since.. Even went for a walk today! Only to come home & they have all kinds of baked goods on the counter from today's bake sale!! NO regards as to what that is doing to my mind!! UGGHHHH!!! Feeling down & alone :/ I have no regrets in life & I'm praying this won't be my first!

Wendy's Chili was great for me too! ) Along with their baked potato! It's small, cheap & what I can't finish I don't feel guilty tossing it! Yumm!

I am 2 weeks post-op today & am 15lbs down! I have averaged a pound a day, but have been the same for 2 days now! My head is telling me I shouldn't be slowing down already this early.. And now I'm used to seeing 1 pound less every morning so this is Bumming! Anybody else start slowing down this early?! Am I crazy & just obsessing with the scale?! HW-269 SW-263 CW-248 Surgery 9/30/13

Wow!! You guys are AWESOME!! So glad I posted this & got your responses!! I feel much better & will definitely ease away from the scale!! Patience, determination, & following the plan! IM ON IT!! ) Thank you all again very much!

YUMM! That sounds good!! I think the hardest part is knowing I CANT have what I want! And of course all the food commercials don't help! lol Thanks for the boost!

Had my surgery 9/30 too & this not eating is the hardest thing EVER!! The only junk I want is Pizza! I want a good salad, a sandwich or some grilled chicken!! Of course it's too early for any of that but I'm ready for something REAL! 9 days out- 10lbs down! Congrats to all of you!
