In N Out
I am so sorry that he is not being more supportive! It does take some time for them to come around. My hubby has got a lot better. I had to get on him because I am a private person and I didnt tell any one about my surgery...well if we were eating with people at their houses, or out at a resturant and I would gat up to go to the bathroom he would start talking about how I am probably throwing up in the bathroom! OMG I had a few times that he said this and the people looked at me like I had an eating disorder! Talk about being pissed off! I had to sit him down and tell him that this was not acceptable. He has gotten a lot better, but they are men after all.....they dont take change well, and they dont get a hint...you have to tell them straight forward! As for eating In N Out...that stuff is sooo good it hurts to think about! The good news is that you will be able to have that eventually....just not a double double, animal style with animal style fries, and the soda! Now that I am a year out I will occationally have a single cheeseburger from there, and I will finish about 2/3rds of it, I just throw the rest of it away.....got my craving over with and that is that. good luck to you!

No Drinking With Eating..explain Why?
I know that at first I tried to eat and drink at the same time, because I was addicted to it....It would cause the slims for me...horrible, and it hurt too. so I stopped for a long time. now I am able to drink a little bit with my meals, but only a sip or two.....it doesnt make me hungry faster at all.....but I definatly cant fit as much food in when I do sip on water. I dont ever drink anything but water with a meal or it makes me want to hurl....sorry so graffic, but the truth.

Bathroom Issues
yes I had problems with going for a while. I wasnt eating enough to have any waiste. I would take a few days till I had to go. Now I pretty much go every day again. if you have pain from constipation you need to talk to the doc, because impaction is a deadly thing. I have had patients die of impaction.....dont freak out....they were mentally impaired and didnt know to report it to us. the pain meds that they give you can cause constipation, so if you are still on those you might think about taking some collase, also called dss....it doesnt make you go, it just makes it softer when you go, and is totally fine to take with your new tummy. good luck!

Idk I'm Gonna Ever Enjoy Food Anymore
this is normal. you will be able to eat again. this is buyers remorse. once you are all healed you will be able to enjoy food again, promise. I love going to my old favorite places to eat again.....I just have a lot to go.....or I give some to the people I am with. it will get better! good luck!

Ibueprofen
I took it and had no problems. gotta make sure that you take it with a little food so that it doesnt irritate your tummy. there is a higher risk of bleeding with all nsaids, as long as you arent going in for surgery anytime soon you will be fine.

Question: Why Is Caffeine Off Limits?

One Year Post Op; W/pics
Hello everyone! First of all, I just cant believe that it has already been a year since my new begining! It really does go by fast once you finally get your surgery. This has been a life saver for me. I am so thankful everyday that I did this incredible thing for myself and for my family. I have lost more then 130 pounds! I am so happy, and I feel so wonderful.

Completely Given Up
I sure hope you arent seriously upset over 40 pounds in 3 months. If you are then you are really in for some dissapointment in the next year. this isnt some majic fix that makes your fat suddenly disapear. unfortunatly people get some false hope that you will have the surgery and then a few months later poof you are suddenly skinny. it doesnt come on over night and certainly doesnt go away over night either. I was hungry all the time at first too. now my normal hunger is back, but i am just full faster. losing 40 pounds in 3 months is phenominal. be happy with whatever you lose, for at least you arent gaining.

Rant Post-Op Issues
I am so sorry you have had so many problems. I know you have probably heard this before, but I was in your shoes with the nausea, vomiting and diahrea for the first 2 months. I would drink water and then have the slims or just throw up. The feeling that your own stomach is eating your stomach....and a bunch of other things. I can tell you that it seemed to get worse at first, then finally I started to feel better at about 2 months out. Now at 10 months out I am so thankful that I got this surgery. I know it is hard in the moment, but it will pass eventually. Hope it is sooner then later! wishing all the best for you! ((hugs))
