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

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
