Congrats too you. I had mine done 3/29 I have only lost 15 lbs but I have lost the inches.I had my 2nd fill today ,still the process is slow ,but my clothes fills so much better. I can not wait to shop for new stuff. Hope every thing goes well for you.

I got the bipass in 2002 I went from 344 to 180 lbs , but I gained the wt. back because I streached it back ,I jiust had band put over it 4/29 and Ihave lost about 2lbs per week my begining wt was 293 so I like the constiction that I have If it gets to loose I know I can get a fill

I had my sugery 4/29 and I have a hard area the size of a grapefruit , and it also was very sore.My DR. put me on Keflex and it is slowly going away ,please go and see your DR.

YOU are going to need at least 4 weeks off the first 2 you can not lift over 5 lbs that meens no house work the next 2 weeks nothing over 10 lbs, you are going to need some help . I know because I tried to manage like you and I have a hernia I have to have surgery I DID NOT LISTEN TO MY DR.

I would not tell her,I would let it be a surprise when she see you again you might be 40lbs lighter, now that will make you happy when everyone tells you how GOOD you look .GOOD LUCK YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!

I do not know what it coast in Il but in MN each of my DR appointment ran about 275.00 I had to see phycologist,cadiologist nutritionist 3 times,and a wt management DR for 6 visits before you can have the surgery in MN. But I am happy with the treatment I recieved I felt that they were really concerned about my well being,That did not include all the diagnostic testing I had done in all I think surgery and all other services ran about 14,000. I got to know all of my Drs and i establised a relationship with them I think I got the best care at University of MN Hospital.

I have a large hard ball around my port site, I noticed this yesterday today It seems to have gotten larger,I have intermediate sharp pains at site also.one side of my belly is larger than the other. Has anyone had this problem?

It will be 4 weeks post opt on 29th, I have DR visit today at 330pm ,I am scared hope not herniated ,do not want surgery again so soon

the area is slightly warm to touch no redness but it hurts when I move

No this is a large mass of hard tissue,It is a ball yhe size of a grapefriut and the site has sharp pains,

this ball was smaller yesterday now its larger,feels like it is going up under my breast bone

I am so confused, I had my sugery 04/29/11 and I am so hungery I have ate some foods I should have not eaten. Mostly soft foods like baked chicken that I had to chew really fine to swallow,my body is craveing protiens. I am not scheduled for fill until 6/7 I am afraid that I have gained wt. my clothes fill no different on me. I need other support ,I am feeling depressed, I dont want to start benge eating.I think I need my fill now.
