Should I Be Hungry?
maryjane61 replied to maxskillz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks, Jennyblue. Fortunately I haven't done that again. I am slowly losing the craving for food that has little value. I'm happy about that. I've learned that I have so little room for anything at all, that I want it to be nutritionally valuable. Good luck to you. I'm 12 lbs down at two weeks out. -

4 Days Post Op And Still Cannot Lay On My Side. :(
maryjane61 replied to Prissy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh yes! Sleeping on my back makes my lower back hurt really bad! It was a week post op before I could comfortably sleep on my sides. As far as the headache, I had a super duper horrible headache in hospital (I think due to the morphine) and convinced a nurse to give me liquid Tylenol with codeine (before my barium swallow). Whew! I am prone to headaches and I have had not a one since returning from hospital. I think it is all the liquids! I used to NEVER drink Water. I am now a believer as headaches are my greatest fear! Good luck! -
Oh, the gas was the worst! But don't worry, it will be gone very soon. I am a week and a half out and I feel great! What a difference just a day makes! Good luck!

Is Keeping The Secret Possible?

I have not had surgery and haven't considered it until I found this site. I want to know more! Will I always be considered a "special circumstance" when it comes to eating for the rest of my life? Will I have to adhere to strict dietary guidelines for the rest of my life? If so, how is it different from plain old dieting (which absolutely doesn't work for me). I keep thinking I need to "get a hold of myself mentally" or things will always go back to the same result: FAT! I am secretly hoping that if I get lots of poundage off my body I will be more inclined to exercise and move more because it will be easier as a lighter person. I need direction! I am at the end of my hope and I have a six year old son who wants me to play with him and is noticing my size compared to other mothers.
