I'm having mine on April 22ns and I have 2 young kids. How long should I hire help for?!? My oldest daughter is 3 and disabled. How bad does it hurt? I have a pretty high pain tolerance and I have had 2 csection with my kids.

Tia and I hope you feel better!

I guess I just didn't want everyone on my fb to know. I had already made my mind up and was tired of people talking about it. I would rather post a picture in 6 months and have people freak! I mean I want to scream" Hey fuckers I lost 24 pounds in 3 weeks" but i don't! haha I'll just share with you all :) We can become our own little support group! If y'all want to share a little information about yourself. You dont have too just an idea!

What LoL!!! Love what you put.

Hey fuckers I lost 24 pounds in 3 weeks. That's Great!!!. It's all about you and what.

My new journey 2013

Honestly the pain is the worst for the first 2 days and then it gets better with every day. You can't lift over 10 pounds and bending is a big chore; I'm still having trouble with it.

I will be hiring someone if my sister can't help me then. I don't want to come home and have no help and be forced to do things myself. I just hope my husband will help out on the weekends. He tends to give me shitty looks if he has to do "too much" lol.

I had my surgery one week ago on Feb. 26.

The pain was horrible the first night until they got the pain medications right. After that I had no issues. Much easier then the two c-sections and hysterectomy surgery I had in the past. I have no pain now. My doctor closed the holes with a special glue nor steri strips or sutures. I never had trouble sitting or coughing. I was discard three days post op and had a 2 hour car ride home with no discomfort. Everyone is different

      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.
