Man, that sucks. I hope it gets better for you. I have heard people on here say it's totally normal and the severity is different for each person. I hope I'm lucky and avoid it, but I doubt it. Just keep telling yourself it is only temporary and soon you will be back to yourself! Best of luck! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

I would definitely ask her if something is wrong. Maybe it's just her own insecurities. She might be thinking you're getting your sexy back ???? and she might loose you. You just never know what's going through someone's heart. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Thinking if you this morning Mindi ???? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Can I ask. What's your BMI? If you have a co morbidity you might need that documentation from your PCP for insurance purposes. I was initially denied because details of my co morbidity was not included in my first request Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Sorry I hit the post button before I was done. My experience is that my PCP didn't know a lot of information regarding wls or the requirements involved. She was however happy to help. The bariatric department you are going to be seen at will make sure you get everything done. I had to do 6 months supervised diets, phyc evaluation, nicotine test, upper GI, lab work. That was for insurance to approve surgery.That was all done early on. My surgery is Jan 17 . Dec 30 I have a informative class I have to attend, more blood work, x ray, ekg, meet with the anaesthesiologist, and a final appointment with my surgeon and her nurse. I hope that helps kinda put things in perspective for ya???? good luck Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

I'm so sorry. If you need someone to talk to or just listen I'm here. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I just remember long ago how easy being single was. I just want to be happy and carefree again. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App I'm so sorry. Why is it because of surgery? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

If we are all getting the same surgery...bypass, why are different Vitamins suggested by surgeons. For instance my surgeon specifically told me no Flintstones chewables or Centrum. IDK I'm just thinking we all need the same amount of vitamins after surgery... correct? I feel like I have to purchase the more costly ones from particular websites until I can swallow actual pills. At least that's how I feel about my Multivitamin. I know I can grab the others at any drugstore. Am I missing something? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

What time is your surgery? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

I put on coconut oil after every shower (going with the Bahamas theme) ???? so would they still stick if I cleaned the area off with some rubbing alcohol. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App
