  1. That is very normal (to me anyway)...I went through the same feelings. Remember that the more weight you loose, the more estrogen gets released into your body (estrogen is stored in fat cells and as you loose weight the estrogen gets released too). That has A LOT to do with how you feel right now....also, food was a major part of your life...so now that you don't have that comfort, it hurts...badly!!! This will pass, I promise. I didn't think anyone was going to be able to understand me, and how I felt, and when I came on here I realized I wasn't alone. Just keep in mind why you did this, and you WILL feel normal again!!! Give it time.

    Good And Bad News Today!

    Don't give up!! I had a lot of issues with insurance as well, but I didn't give up and I ended up getting the surgery in March. Keep moving forward!!

    Nosey Rosies

    I felt the same way! I'm very private and was considering not even telling my parents. I really thought it was something that only my husband and I needed to know. However, after thinking about it I decided to tell my mom and dad...they were surprisingly supportive. Then, after the surgery, I really didn't care who knew anymore. It was almost like I wanted to avoid the initial judgement..and then once I had the surgery it didn't matter anymore. You may not feel the same way, but keep that in mind

    I Messed Up

    You'll be fine I ate a couple chips only 2 weeks out and I'm still lossing weight. You don't have to totally deprive yourself of "bad" food.. because your always going to want it. Just don't eat it on a regular basis, but give yourself some room to mess up. Your not perfect!! And, just think....before the surgery you probably would have eaten the whole bag, right? I know I would have...and now I can only eat like 10 at a time. I'm pretty happy with that

    Hey From Milwaukee

    I got the centrum chewables but they made me so nauseas!! They taste like chalk and dirt lol. I just have an adult gummy vitamin from an organic store. My doctor was fine with that and they seem to be working fine

    Nsaids

    I took ib profen a few days before surgery. As long as you didn't take it for a long period of time, I'm sure your fine.
  8. I agree, if your having stomach pains don't rush into the solid food. I still get an "uncomfortable feeling" when I eat too much or too fast...so I understand how that feels!!

    tablespoon of peanut butter is perfect for me...but if you don't like peanut butter get anything sugar free

    Pissed Off And Frustrated

    All the posts above are correct. Stalls are very normal around 2-3 weeks, and they can last for about 2-3 weeks. I know its frustrating, but don't worry. The weight will come off as long as your doing what your supposed to do!!
  12. That is totally normal! Yes, you will feel normal again. I went through those feelings and every day gets easier!
  13. The only protein shake I can handle is the Oh Yeah! Protein shakes. And, the chocolate one is too heavy and thick for me, so I only get either the vanilla or cookies and cream (they also have a banana creme but I haven't tried it). I had the same problem..I was always nauseas and couldn't get the protien down. Eventually it gets easier...

    Average Wait On Bcbs?

    It wasn't a pain like I thought it would be. I did all the required work-up stuff (blood work, physical, ect..) and they approved it in 2 days with no questions asked.

    Not Sure If I Should Worry

    I haven't had anything like that happen, but i don't think it sounds normal at all. You should call your doctor and just check. Better safe than sorry!
