I have to just sit around lay around and do nothing! I guess I have tore my muscle on my stomach from going to much I'm 6 weeks out and have had no problems. Out of nowhere Sunday at work I got the worse pain sharp stabbing pain from under my ribs down to incision site on left side. I had to go to er got admitted I'm 6 he's away from my Dr in Kansas. They did contrast IV and oral CT. Reg abdominal series, and a upper gi.nothing showed up bad. So they just controlled my pain over night sent me home. I'm still in so much pain today only when I get up. My Dr says they can't give me anything I just have to rest. My Family and I was going on vacation this weekend for my 30th bday and mother's day but that's on hold!! I'm down but I know it will be worth it!! I warn all early or new sleevers be never lift or over do it!! Becarful even at 6 to 8 weeks!

Thanks for all the prayers! I had a cat scan with oral and IV contrast. I had a abdominal xray and a upper gi like a leak test all came back ok they don't know and my Dr is in Mexico on vacation but will be back tomorrow. They r discharging me with muscle relaxers I don't know what to think or do! U think I should be worried about a blood clot if I had a CT? I hope they didn't over see it!

I'm in the hospital because of pain control. I was wondering if anyone had any pain like this worse the labor pains! They come and go! Maybe the muscle spasm where the cut through? Worse thing about surgery all was perfect until now. My surgery was 3/27!

3/27 surgery lost 24lbs feel great. I love lemon water its my new favorite drink!! Lol. I bike with my family! Waiting to get below 200 for a big celebration along with turning 30! Than I'm going to bust out strength training. Yoga zumba weights and fun stuff like that!

Surgery date 3/27/12. Starting weight 267 now 246 um happy with this just love watching the scales go down!!! Congrats to all of u sounds like ur doing great!!

Thank u all for posting. U all lookso amazing!! This gives us newbies all hope! Those heals are great! I can't wait until I can wear them!

Ur lucky I had to pay cash my insurance didn't cover it!!!

can u ever have diet soda or carbonate beverages! or is it gone forever?

I'm having problems with liking the protein shakes to I've tried several different kinds but going to keep trying I haven't been able to get all them in I'm 3 weeks post op. My mom is a nurse and she is worried about me not getting enough protein. She says it could weaken the heart muscle as well as others. Ur heart is one of the biggest muscles.and the most important. So I would keep trying like me. I don't want a bad heart. I had my surgery to get off my blood pressure medicine and many other reasons. I wish u the best and we should all just keep trying to find tasty easy on the tummy protein drinks lol. Lots of luck!

I'm a respiratory therapist. I know people look for use cpap bipap machines all the time because some don't gave insurance. Try eBay local newspaper u can sell them or Donate them.

Tks I got on that's a cool app.

I'm 9 days post op. I had 7 days preop liquid diet. Preop lost 8lbs. Than the first 3 days post op lost 4lbs more! Total 12 lbs but I've stop losing the last 6 days Ill go up lbs and down a lb. So I really didn't think I should be having such problems this early out! I'm getting my protein in? Maybe I need more water? My husband keeps asking me how much did u lose today and I've gotta say nothing! And he reminds me we self paid for this! Nice! Lol
