    Fit Bit anyone???

    @Ylime I love that it is a full smart watch (I upgraded from Alta HR), I can read text/IM/email and even send quick replies from the watch, I L O V E that it is water resistant and I don't have to remove it to shower/swim anymore. I get meeting reminders and can see who is calling me plus I can use it to pay for things in some places. That's on top of all the standard fitbit activity/steps/stairs/sleep tracking! Oh and they just added monthly cycle tracking too

    Regret it

    I am so confused, have you had the surgery or not yet? Is your story somewhere I can read?

    This is not a great idea when someone is already suffering from hives.

    If you’re starting to feel queasy that is when you should take the zofran. You risk serious dehydration otherwise.
  8. Oh man that does sound awful, I don't have anything that sounds like that all, I hope you feel better soon!
  9. What stitch is that? I don't have any that are particularly painful
  10. I only get it when taking my evening meds on an empty stomach. Ask your doc for some Zofran, dissolves on the tongue and works in just a few minutes. Also - Lexapro withdrawal can be VERY dangerous, are you off of it cold turkey or did you taper down properly? I ended up in the ER years ago when a bad doc had me stop cold turkey.

    Pain and More Pain

    I definitely didn't have pain like yours, but I found ice packs across my incisions and abdomen to help A LOT in the first week
  13. Me too, have been using Baritastic because it has good graphs but it's food logging leaves a lot to be desired
  14. I had two On-Q pumps and they were fantastic! No pain whatsoever!

    Any June 2018 Sleevers in Here?!

    June 18th for me! My recovery has been very easy so far, my surgeon installed 2 On-Q pain pumps that were just removed today. I am STRUGGLING with getting my fluids and protein in, hoping it gets easier as the swelling goes down. I do have some abdominal distension still from the gas used in the surgery, but nothing terribly severe.
  16. I had surgery with Thomas Brown this week and he’s been amazing! Is there somewhere I can read about your husbands experience, missy?
  17. Day 1 of the pre-op liquid diet is underway. I was able to have my last cup of coffee for a while this AM and have been drinking Vitamin Water Zero and water since, I definitely have to pee a lot!
