  2. 3 weeks post op and i've stalled. Haven't lost a pound since last week... any advice???

  3. Why... cuz they sent me home in it and said to wear it for like the next month. I was highly drugged for the reason though... hmmm you didn't get one???
  4. I go back tomorrow, I'm nervous. I am only staying as long as I "feel" like it though so that's good!
  5. Is anyone still wearing their DVT? or girdle? My doc said 2 weeks but it's irritating my skin something fierce!

    Your dream outfit

    I want to be able to wear a swimming suit and feel good. That'd be a huge deal

      Pain free during the day after 4 days. At night needed pain meds about a week because I am a restless sleeper.

    Pain

    I had a tubal reversal last year, and that was nothing compared to this. I woke up in terrible pain with the VSG. It only took a few days but that first day was terrible.
  10. Sleeved on the 26th. Home the 27th. Terrible pain from the gas yesterday (28th)... I took some laxatives and that helped relieve it. Today I woke up feeling "normal" whatever that is now! I had my first non clear liquid food and it made my heart happy. I've lost about 18 pounds so far... and couldn't be happier. Good luck everyone!
  11. Post Surgery! I've made it to the other side!!!

      Thanks I'm so excited and relieved. I have been going through the appeal process... that was stressful!

  23. Soooooooooo hungry! Day one liquid diet.. does this get any easier?!?!?!

    1. cubgirl

      cubgirl

      yes it gets easier. after your surgery you won't have much of an appetite and when you do, just a little food goes a long way. good luck!

    2. npeace83

      npeace83

      Yeah, I'm not as worried about after... but right now! It feels like I could gnaw off my own arm.

  24. Well, starting the liquid diet Wednesday... even though I'm still waiting on an appeal.... Have to be ready if they say yes. Surgery is still scheduled for the 26th!

      I was told my co-morbs basically weren't good enough, and I'm underweight! Ha like that could ever be true! I call bullshit, but what do I know.
