Hey guys do any of you have to take a shot for 14 days called lovanox or something like that lol

Hi my wonderful beautiful people,, Thank you for all the kind words; they truly help me stay positive. So pain has subsided immensely!! I had my 1 week post op appointment and everything went great. HW 340 SW 317 CW 301 GW 160-170 I'm so happy and ready to eat some eggs, lol! So my first recipe for you guys is Salmon Croquettes; my nut said we can't eat this until our 4th week out but I'm anxiously waiting to share. 2-8oz cans of salmon (cleaned of skin, fats, and bones 1/4 cup fresh spinach chopped 1/2 red pepper chopped finely 1/2 green pepper " " 1/2 yellow pepper " " 1/2 onion " " 2 small banana peppers "" 1 whole egg Garlic, salt, and pepper seasoning to taste 2 tablespoons of Choloula hot sauce Bread crumbs I can't believe it's not butter spray In a large bowl mix the salmon and seasonings together. In a skillet spray the can with one squirt of I can't believe it's not butter and add all the peppers, onions, spinach and sauté until tender. Once tender add vegetables to the salmon mix. Add the egg, hot sauce, and bread crumbs ( as desired) and begin to mix the mixture with hands or a spoon until it is completely mixed. Make patties ( it should be enough bread crumbs in mix to hold the patties together). The same skillet you used for your veggies squirt a couple of sprays of butter and add your patties to the skillet. Cool until golden brown on both sides. If you prefer to bake them; put them in the oven at 375 degrees and bake for 10-12 mins on each side!! Bona petite!!!! Let me know what you think!!!

Hey my beautiful sisters!!!! Soooo happy to have found this thread. I had surgery last week and still dealing with some pain but GOD IS SO GOOD! I had my first appointment today and I have lost a total of 23.5 lbs. Just ready to chew food instead of drinking it. I look forward to sharing my journey, pics, and healthy recipes with you all!! Talk to you soon

Congratulations beautiful

Hey beautiful, yes absolutely half of us due. I didn't find out I had one until a week before my surgery and I had surgery 2/11. The doc said a lot of people get them from eating late and going right to sleep; so the food just sits there. My doc did laparoscopic and repaired my hernia at the same time. I wish you many blessings and everything will be fine!!

Hey everyone, just checking in and glad to see everyone is doing good. Still in a lot of pain on a regular basis but I'm dealing; STAYING POSTIVE!!! I'm only hungry when I smell good besides that I'm good on that end. I have been coming up with healthy recipes to share with you all once I can eat real food again... So look forward to an update on that in the next few weeks. I don't want to temp anybody to soon!!! LOL I'm so happy and blessed to have you all in my corner. So looking forward to our pics of progress too!!! Ttyl

You are truly an inspiration!!! I just found your thread and read all five pages and your so motivating and encouraging!! I had my surgery on the 11th and the first couple of days I was crying and screaming "WHAT IN THE HELL DID I DO TO MYSELF"! See I'm allergic to most pain meds so I'm in pain all day everyday and I wouldn't wish this pain on my worst enemy!! Going through your thread gave me a burst of "I CAN DO THIS"!! Thank you for sharing and I am so looking forward to reading more and eventually seeing your pics!!! Congratulations brother

Hey everyone, Had my surgery Tuesday. Everything went well; I'm in a lot of pain due to the fact I'm allergic to codeine. Walked around a lot yesterday after they removed my foily and drain. Now I'm just trying to deal with the pain. I haven't had that much sleep. Staying positive!!! Check back in in a few days.

Good morning my beautiful people ???????????? Today is the day for some us for a new beginning. I am sooooo excited and ready for this new chapter in my life. You all have been so helpful, encouraging, and inspirational! I thank GOD for this app. I'm looking forward to sitting on the losers bench with you all in the post-op thread and seeing pics of our progress each month. Many blessings to all and I'll update you as soon as I'm able. Ttyl ????
