I feel like I'm dying!

It will go away. We all have suffered through the “buyers remorse” phase. Give it another day or two. It’ll settle down. 😊 -
Pain meds for post op problems relating to knees
PaulaB72 replied to diahar's topic in Rants & Raves
Only thing that worked for my knee pain was Tylenol with codeine. That tied me over until I was able to get cortisone shots in them... ☹️ -
I would have asked them how much weight THEY have lost in 8 weeks. Pfffft. So sorry this happened. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Please help me understand your boss's rationale for such rules ? The smell throughout the office I suspect... It can be awful in some cases. At least it is in our office. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Seems to be mostly my lower half so far. 40lbs down and my thighs are loosening up and starting the dreaded thigh rub. Bought some compression shorts. Seems to help a bit. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Gross and TMI but I need to know if this is normal
PaulaB72 replied to Pazza's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I couldn't drink that many of those Costco drinks per day and in fact it even says on the side of them no more than one per day. I felt awful sick drinking that many of them before I saw that written on the side of it. -

I must be a freak. When I did my swallow test I didn't mind it as much as I thought I would. I guess I was just so excited to be able to drink something. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Surgeon accidentally cutting the liver?
PaulaB72 replied to Rainy Days's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon said that if he went in and the liver was too large he would just close me up and not do the surgery. That was plenty of incentive to follow directions for me. Same here. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
