Why do I feel suicidal ?
Rita48 replied to Mucheca's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I suggest you call your surgeon office and they should be able to direct you. How are you feeling suicidal? R u planning harming yourself in some particular way? R u spiritual? -
Sorry that you are having these issues and hope things get better for you. Are you having to go to infusion center daily? What is your doctor telling you?

My husband actually had the gastric bypass December 2016 and I had the sleeve 5/9. So yes, we are doing it together, he is just leading! [emoji846]

Rita48 replied to Rita48's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I too am an adult, I do not drink alcohol, do I feel as if "I short them"....NEVER. If chose to order off a kids menu, would I feel that "I short them", not at all. I feel that is depends on the type restaurant re:quality of food on menus and not a fast food type restaurant with poor choices. -
Stopped losing after the first week ....
Rita48 replied to JuneD's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I also had surgery on 5/9. Morning of surgery at hospital I weighed 228, once I was discharged home the next evening, I weighed in at 234.6...I was up 6.6 lbs! I currently weigh 226.4 lbs as of this morning. So I have lost 8.2 lbs, but 6.6 lbs were from hospital fluids. So actually I've lost 1.6 lbs! HA So my body has been through a lots in 6 days! Hang in there and we will start sending results soon, I hope! -
Welcome to the group & Congratulations!

Wondering how everyone that had surgery on the 9th are doing? I'm doing well except for the incisional soreness which is to be expected!

You know you lost weight when
Rita48 replied to Thomas CPA's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Today has been my worst day, sorta feeling drained. I had been doing extremely well, getting the fluids and protein in, although today I'm behind. The incisional soreness at umbilical site is killing me but the pain medication helps. I even went outside and walked a bit yesterday, today I have no get up and go. I'm looking forward to a better tomorrow. Glad that you are doing well. -
I'm so sorry Carlita42 that you are having to go through this. I will keep you in my prayers and pray for complete healing for you with a speedy recovery! Keep the faith!!!

how long did it take to heal
Rita48 replied to nana perez's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hope your pain gets better soon! Maybe try a ice pack to stomach, put it in pillow case or something. It just helps to numb pain and helps with swelling. This too shall pass! -

Who are you telling (pre-op)?
Rita48 replied to Arthur Dent's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can relate, I'm thinking my boss has had loose lips as well! I informed her and told her I wasn't telling anyone else. On Friday there was a conversation at the station about someone having a gastric sleeve and losing 100 pounds. Also there was another conversation about someone losing weight on weight watcher. It could be a coincidence but I doubt it...my boss has loose lips! [emoji35]
