Didn't say I assume through the stages and new foods unless i get diarrhea. I had a problem going regularly before surgery

Good news, they dont think there's any blockage. Did the leak test and all went through ok but he wants to redo it tomorrow with more liquid. Due to having a hard time breathing and an elevated blood rate he tested for clots. No clots! Ultrasound on my tummy pancreas kidneys and gal bladder and there is some sludge in my gal bladder but should be ok with IV treatment. They have me on zofran, pepsid, reglan, and Ativan along with a potassium saline bag. Knock wood not many tests left.

Today I decided to put together a bucket list of things related to my weight. I knew my weight effected me, but I never realized how gigantically :/ 1. Shop in normal stores and be able to wear whatever. No more over priced stores just because they are the only cute clothes in my sizes (ehemmmmTORRID). If I splurge, let it be for cute/sexy reasons, like Victoria Secret. And I want to be able to wear those hot outfits, and buy those hot little Halloween numbers without looking like an overstuffed sausage. And shorts. I haven't worn shorts since elementary school. And I want to wear them without chaffing. 2. Go up and down stairs and walk long distances without feeling like I'm dying 3. Tie my shoes without having to suck everything in and holding my breath 4. Fit wherever I am. Chairs, seats, booths, rides, and not wonder if I'm too big, will I break it, and feel comfortable. And not have 1/2 my butt hanging off. 5. I want to run for the first time. Even if it's to the car. I want to be able to run like skinny people and not look ridiculous or feel like I'm a million pounds after. 6. Go to the pool/beach/boardwalk and not feel out of place. I want to be able to wear a bikini and look hot. I'm only 25! I don't want to feel like a whale washed up on shore next to my skinny fiancé, and I want to weigh less than him. 7. I want to be able to walk in heels without feeling like an elephant on a tight rope. 8. Speaking of my fiancé, I want to feel ok with letting him pick me up without freaking out on him not to. 9. Skinny sex 10. Being ok with pics taken of me. And not saying "omg delete this pic" on fb 11. Not be the fat one of the group/setting 12. Get the O_O look. For a GOOD reason. Double points if it's from someone in the past. Ex/schoolmate/whatever 13. Feel comfortable. Period. 14. Look beautiful and in a normal size on my wedding day, and not regret my weight in the pictures in years to come. 15. Not let food control me. Or have others tell me I need to do something about my weight. Anyone else have ideas?

Admitted again tonight. Testing for blocks/strictures in the morning. Giving me fluids thank god, I was so exhausted and wobbly

I'm already on 20mg 3x a day. Haven't been able to get/keep down food since Thursday and I feel awful. I'm so nauseas and in pain. Er friday said gastritis and possible pleurisy. Sent me home with no meds and said see my dr in 3-4 days.

It came back ok. Just a splenic infarcture and for a small amount of time my liver enzymes and white cell count were up. Nausea and acid reflux have been awful

I can't get down any dairy or protein. Nut said try carbs like pretzels saltines and graham crackers to get in my cals and help the nausea. After throwing up pretzels today I guess that one is a no go too! I can get down low acid fruits (eg apples, watermelon). I've just been having a really rough time with this surgery. I honestly regret it and feel like I've made the biggest mistake of my life.

Took 2 weeks for my clearance but my nut kept calling.

Saw my dr and nut today and the poop issue came up. I haven't gone in 2 weeks. They told me add metamucil or benefiber to EVERY drink even after I go to keep things moving.

Ohhhhh afterrrr. Sorry. I couldn't get comfy enough for like a week to shave. Like sex, whenever you feel up to it (:

I was afraid of the adhesive on little hairs, I shaved even my belly to make sure. Then I was told no shaving. I'm still alive! Lol

I had a splenic infarction as well, but not the others (just that and a major hiatal hernia).I ended up back in for 5 days. I don't get any type of sweats, but I do get shaky randomly. I don't feel cold, sometimes I feel warm, but blankets help sometimes. I was nauseas constantly and pain in my lower left back like someone would randomly step on it in stelettos. It's getting better though. I'm forever tired though, walking couch to fridge winds me!!! Def request your records and see another doc. Don't tell them anything about your lawyer or you may have a hard time getting them.

I was always cold before but used to put the ac to 70 and snuggle under the comforter with my fiancé as my butt radiated heat. Now I freeeeeeeze all the time and do the same with it at 80 and my butt radiates nothing :/ I'm only a month out though.

I got so desperate as to I cut off the seeds around the strawberries and peeled skin off a grape. Grape was wayyyyy too sour though for my taste.

CW-208. GW-onederland! Ontop of eating something more solid than baby food (outside fruits)

Is it in the middle/left/right side?

That's crazy, I'd be scared out of getting it!!! That's one too many co-inkidinks for me! :/

Getting there. Everyday I feel a little better, getting out of the house helps A LOT. Swam over the weekend. Felt like a million bucks in the pool, slept like a baby lol (: we have to meet up again!

Swimming was interesting at first because I felt my organs floated funny but it felt soooooo good since I cant walk to sta d too long (: Down 38lb, 2 pant sizes, a shirt size, and 2 bra band sizes!

The phases are there for a reason. Ask your nut before you do, you don't want to infect/burst your new tummy!

After waiting from oct to may, I'm upset lol LUCKYYYYY!!

Has anyone tried this? Reviews? If only they would make a Trop50 low acid..

4 weeks out, 38lb down. I'm so tired.. If I walk from the house to the parking lot I get a fluttery feeling in my chest, shallow breathing and I want to collapse. I know it's a lot to lose so fast on top of my splenic infarction. But when does this feeling end? I went grocery shopping for half an hour and I feel like I just ran a 5k ):

In 4 weeks went from 42a to 38b. Hoping they stay like this, they look great lol fiancé said "well you already lost your boobs" then I threw on a better fitting bra and he was lol MEN Lord help me when I reach goal, they will be squiter bites!

My bending overs... Pliés!!! Or "sweeeetieeeee??" lol
