    I drink the majority of my protein to make sure I get it it. Liquids are processed different so you able take in more liquids then actual food.

    I am 4 weeks out today. I have felt hunger within the last week. Especially in the morning but after I eat my bowl of cereal it goes away. I have never heard that about not feeling hunger. That is interesting.

    I had a hernia repair and I have to say my surgery was not bad AT ALL! I think it is different with everyone, with a wide array of variables. Some people don't like surgery and it will just be horrible regardless, some people's pain tolerance is very different and some people's surgery recovery is just down right awful. Try not to base your expectations on others experience. Use it as a tool of Preparedness but not as a crutch for fearfulness. You got this!!!!

    @@BrandNewTrina They are all really great in that office. I dealt with Dr. Carlton during my first consultation. They are very fast moving. To be honest I only saw Dr Nicholson 3 times. During my intial consultation, right before my surgery in the pre surgery room, and follow up in the recovery room. It is like well oiled machine. Quick and efficient. They will answer any and all questions you have though.

    I think we all have that thought "I can't believe I did that". So funny to get confirmation that we are not alone in out thoughts.

    Just be patient with yourself. One thing I have learned is that everyone's journey through this wls path is different. There will be times where you are like I can not believe I did this to myself. But you have to wait until you get over your hill. Take it easy and don't rush the process. As far as the hair loss I was fortunate enough to be introduced to a company that has a product specifically for your hair growth right before my surgery and it has been great. My hair has actually gotten thicker and grown a lot.

    I had both (sleeve and hernia repair) as well but I keep seeing people post about having their drains removed so I was curious as to if it was the "Norm".

    Curious. I have seen a couple of people mention "drains removed". Just curious because I did not have drains after I woke up from surgery. Are drains normal for sleeve?
