I would try adding protein shakes at least two a day. Your body is probably in starvation mode. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

It could totally be withdrawl taper off, and you will be fine. I didnt take, but one dose of pain medicine at the hospital, and didn't take anything after cause it made me loopy, lol. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

My back has been really sore too. Are you getting enough fluids I thought mine could be fluid related. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

I am 7 weeks post op, I have lost 52 pounds from my highest, and 42 since the start of preop. I feel like I have no problem eating at all. I will eat, and then a hour later I get hungry again. It is not head hunger, it's actually stomach growling hunger, lol... I usually eat an egg for morning with some light cheese, for lunch I will eat tuna, or some salad with grilled chicken. I always eat my protein first. For dinner I will eat a meat, and veggies. Tonight I had lean ground round patty I was able to eat over half of it, and 1/4 cup of vegetables. Isn't that too much? I hear everyone else saying they can eat 1 or 2 bites, and then they are full. I am worried I did something wrong. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

The preop was a breeze for me. I was so ready to do this I didnt even want food. Im post op 8 days, and I have no energy I can't stand the tecture of most everything, and I hate sugar free drink mixes. They taste too sweet. I'm really struggling too so I understand. This will be worth it in the end, but the next few weeks are gonna be rough. I will be praying for you. You've got this. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

Do you all use a bariatric vitamin, or regular vitamin, and just double up? Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm having sleeve on the 16th. I can believe it almost here. I remember thinking the 6 months were going take forever to get here, and its finally happening. I have been super calm about it, but now starting to get a little nervous. All the what ifs are running through my mind. What if I have complications, and end up leaving my girls without a mother. I knom I am being dramatic. I'm sure you all know where I'm coming from. Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm scheduled May 16th Sent from my LGLS775 using BariatricPal mobile app

I think it would be good to change the group to a private grpup. People would still be able to search the group, but wouldn't be able to see who is in it unless they are a member. I have told a few people that I'm having the surgery, but some I just don't want them to know.

I'm may 16th too I'm pretty calm about it, but I started in November.

May 16th for me.

Everything was finally processed and I called my insurance company, and they said I had been approved. Today I got a denial letter. Anyone have this happened? Customer service is closed, I even have a approval number.

I'm sorry of May, lol....
