Surgery was great but while in the pre op I passed out(embarrassing). I have no pain at all in the abdominal area. The gas pain is wicked at times but walking & heat pad do the trick! I sleep soooo much!!

Sounds like you are doing well with recovery! Congrats!!!!

I'm actually looking forward to smaller boobs!!!! I hope it means I can golf! Big tatas = no ability to swing! My girlfriends are asking me to save my extra boobs for them. Poor girls, they have no idea how heavy these melons really are!

So to summarise this thread - it's good to shave your armpits because thats where you'll probably find your boobs.

Thinking ill need a whole body wax now just to make sure...

Day 2 and I am home....no more gas pain in breast and shoulder but a few times an hour I get a sharp pain that only last a few seconds. Happens mostly when i drink, not used to little sips yet! My stomach feels "tight" but I am so happy about no other pain. Puget sound surgery is fantastic! Everyone is really nice. Dr Landerholm is great. The easy part is over....ready to start my new life

Is the sharp pain normal? Its right in between my breasts. Could the gas have moved from left breast to middle of chest? It happens a few times an hour and only last a second or two. Any one else know about or experienced this

Hey pammy I would call my on call number at my surgeons office or the hospital number.

I would definitely inquire about sharp chest pain in the center.

Could be gas and may be normal but I'd feel better and I know you would if you called.

Please call now and give us an update

      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.
