    Hellllp!

    Hi! You don't have to prep for your consult. Just have any questions ready for your surgeon and him or his staff will let you know what you need to do next. You will be fine...best of luck

    Embarrassment

    " All of these comments from other people make me quite nervous. While I appreciate it, they feed into my insecurities. " Now, I am just embarrassed about my weight. I’m embarrassed that I let myself go to such a level. I’m embarrassed to even discuss it. It’s almost as if I feel like I owe the world an apology for being so fat.' I FEEL THAT WAY ALL THE TIME!!!!!! I thought I was insane for feeling so horrible when people made comment about my weight loss so far. I will walk away feeling if you think I look great now that I have so much to lose HOW DID YOU THINK OF BEFORE? and some really go over board with the loud comments and don't realize this is a private matter/fight! I don't really need you announcing to the room that I am losing weight. Worse is when they openly ask me in a room full with people how much have I lost?!!!!! like really?! Thank you for posting this!

    Increase Protein?

    I was told the same as TMyers. I was told to keep my protein intake between 60 to 80gr or more but not less. He said it helps with the healing process and fast/steady weight loss...

    Two Weeks Out ; Am I Normal?

    let your surgeon's office know how you are feeling! dehydration is not a good thing. I could not drink the required 64oz but I was able to get 32oz in plus the protein drinks (16oz) SF pops, 2oz yogurt or jello or pudding. Really hope you feel better...

    Gallstones

    I wanted my doc to remove mine as well but he said I did not have to. I do worry about that happening to me He did put me on Actigal 300mg, 2X a day, for the next six months. He said this is what he does for his patients and that works thus far. My PCP thought his method of treatment was ok. I take them faithfully. Really hope you will feel better!!!

    Still Have Stitches At 7 Weeks

    mine stayed in till about 4 weeks, than the nurse gave me the option to let my body dropped them or allow her to remove them. Since I didn't want to see them anymore I asked her to do it. She grabbed one end and gently pulled. They slid right off and I did NOT feel a thing.
