I'm 9 days post op. I've had no complications, which, don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful for. Aside from not feeling hungry I feel like nothing has changed. Is this weird or normal? I'm afraid that I'll eat too much at some point and stretch my pouch out because I don't even get the dumping issue. Anybody else have this?

That's a good point. My BMI was 40 when I had the surgery. -
I'm 8 days post op and my face is a mess. Has that happened to anyone else?

Well today my NUT had me start cottage cheese, eggs, and yogurt and I'm doing fine, guess maybe I haven't over eaten then, thanks! -

I am 1 day post op. I have no gas yet and I've been walking. No nausea from my drinks either. I'm starting to wonder if I'm a freak because the pain is very minimal too! -
I am much like you--on antipsychotics and anti-depressants and when I took the psych eval they said "you have a lot of stress and PTSD." Then told me I qualified to get the surgery done so I wouldn't worry about it. I'm getting it done on Tuesday so I know you will be ok

I live in Oregon and my copay will be $100 total

I'm June 9th--I don't know how to add people but would love to be added! -
I take 4 pills a day plus biotin, calcium, iron, and a multi. I haven't had surgery yet but it sounds like I'm going to be having 3 meals of pills! Does anyone take a lot of pills and how do you get them all in?

My doctor said that 130 is not realistic for me but that 150 would be good. If I got down to 130 I'd be really skinny which would be nice lol. But I'm almost 5' 8". -
Yeah because you can't just swallow 8 pills at once.
-
Great ideas, thanks! Unfortunately half my pills don't come in liquid form but I think I will use yogurt.
