Hehe I was begging to be burped. My nurse and mom were burping me. :/

With all this gas floating in my abdomen you have no idea how good some flatulence feels lol.
Wonder if I couldve made soda with it since it's mostly co2 lol.
Anyone else enjoy farting post op?

Thanks so much everyone! I really appreciate all the advice and use it as I can! Please keep it coming! I don't know how I would have got through this change without finding this support group because it has helped me more than I can express! Yesterday I was mentally getting drained and once I got on here and read different things it helped 100%! Thank the Lord for VST!

I'm also 5 dpo and I finally said enough. I bought the lemon Powerade and sipped on it all day. I feel hydrated and full. I don't feel weak or tired. Now I just have to battle through this gas pain

I am one month out today and I had chipotle guac on Saturday (while everyone else ate their steak bowls!) I was only able to eat a quarter of the container. It satisfied my craving and went down easy!

It's taken 6 months, but I am very happy to be out of the 200's. I feel like a totally new person and loving not being in pain everyday. I am going to the beach starting on Saturday and will be in a new bathing suit and will not be ashamed of being in shorts. My goal was to get under 200 for the beach and that has been attained. New goal will be to get to my goal weight of 120. I definitely don't regret this surgery. It has saved my life.

Pretty! Keep up the good work.

Thanks Laura I also pray things go smoothly with your surgery and pain management

Thanks. The pain is not too bad but nausea is awful. My dr just put in a order at the pharmacy for antiemetic. Prayerfully that will make things better. Yes I am now a loser haha I went from 238 to 224. So I will stay positive and look into changing my screen name.

I had 5.....if the doc uses a drain you will have 6...otherwise 5 is normal.

you sound similar to many on the forum and give me doubts. But I bet in a week or 2 you will be happy you made the choice you did and I wishh you good luck.

Thanks for the prayers. I have been keeping track of this thread. I love seeing people praying and it makes me feel good. Pray every one has a blessed recovery and we continue to support each other.
