  1. Ive lost 80lbd & still have pf,didnt think it ever goes away. I didnt have it until.3 months after my girls were born,I did a walkathon.went homr and took a nap,got up and felt like I was walking on cut glass.its was downhill ever since. I saw a podiatrist who made orthodics,,which really didnt do much lived ln nsaids,my job requires 8 Hrs on my feet. Finally went to a place called good feet and paid for a pair of orthos out of pocket $350.00it helps but if I do a lot of walking I pay for it. My foot still hurts even though I walk at least a mile a day,im trying to avoid a shot,so ill put up with it for as long as I can


  2. Yes! I would tell her "yes I did' date=' and I'm proud of my decision to take control of my health and my life! If you sould like more info I will be glad to give it, otherwise please keep any negative opinion to yourself. I didn't do this for others, I did it for ME!"[/quote']

    Awesome response! The best one so far. Be proud ,WLS is another tool that we are able to use to helpuse. Let them say whatever they want,its your life and only you can live it


  3. Most drs I know have you can return to work 7to10 days after surgery,I took 2 Weeks & im very glad I did. I couldnt put my own socks and shoes on til 3 days before going back to work. My biggest incision was very sore. I was only allowed to lift 15 lbs for the first month,so a little more than a gallon of milk, I was exhausted for about the first week going back to work. I am a bookkeeper/ cashier at a grocery store


  4. I agree,just because you advanced to the next stage4 days early is no reason for such hostility. I told my surgeon I had eaten something "earlier" than I was supposed to. His response was did it go down ok? No repercussions?.everyone heals at diffetent rates.the reason for the stages is because your stomach has to learn how to process food again and push it thru to the intestines,which is why raw fruits and especially raw vegetables are allowed last,this is from my surgeons mouth. So I think this thread has run its course people lets move on
