Hey cookeeeez it's sounds like gall stones! Those sounds like the type of pains I has when I had them. If feels like you chest is caving in, but also comes from the back. Keep an eye on it. Ask your doctor, they can send you for an ultrasound. Keep us updated

Hi, thanks for the reply! It did feel almost as bad as gallstones! But I've had mine removed ;) lol I ended up drinking almost half a bottle of mylanta I got from the 24hr servo and by 4.30 it had settled enough to finally get some sleep!

I hadn't eaten anything irregular yesterday but mum says I had it once when I first moved out of home and ate too much Vietnamese afte I had been drinking (not a common occurence for me!) and called her thinking I was having a heart attack!

Lol, anyway, my body is still a bit achey but I feel a lot better but i still think I'll go to GP tomorrow and put it on the record... It was quite scary and painful!

I'm so excited to see your pics shellz!!! And congrats on your promotion!!!!!

You look AMAZING 2 months post op! What a huge difference. And I just LOVE your hair!

I haven't done anything dramatic with my hair yet. My sister says I should wait til I lose more. I wouldn't know what to do with it anyway.

Shell you look amazing!!!! What a difference!!! And congrats on the promotion. I can so relate to the massive boost in confidence.

NSV TODAY!!!! My size 16 work pants were swimming on me. They were target brand, but I had a pair of Kmart ones that fitted better, they were 16 too. I went to target today to get the same style of pants in a 14 as they were pretty comfy and a good style. I work with my sister and she came with me into the change room. She grabbed a size 12 and a 10. I tried on the 14 and it fitter ok. It was a little loose around the waist, but didn't fall off my hips like the 16 did. My sister looked amazing in the 10 and gave me the 12 saying just try it. And guess what!!!!

IM WEARING SIZE 12 WORK PANTS!!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
