I thought it was just me, I hate it, it keeps me nauseous and I have a constant bad taste in my mouth. Smells also bother me I hate the smell of my house, even the plug ins make me nauseous, is this normal.

Congratulations, job well done. Can't wait until I reach that stage I'm only 10 days out.

Good luck LADIES. Speedy recovery to you.

Keep me in your prayers, hoping for a speedy recovery. And the same for everyone else.

Hi I'm Fran have been a RN for 18 yrs. I've worked Telementry, ICU, Admission Center, now Clinical Supervisor of Employee Health for 2.5 yrs now. Excited and scared of more surgery had a band for 7 yrs, removed 5/ 11 along with hernia repair. Want to be healthy tired of being sick, many comorbidities. But hoping and praying for a new life wishing everyone much sucess with your endeavours.

Good Luck

I'm afraid that that will be me, my dream is to be able to walk into any store, regular clothing store and be able to buy something that fits. All my adult life I have been a fat girl, its time for a change. Can't wait till I get there. Fran

Thank you !!!!! I need much encouragement. I have a huge list of comorbidities. I am 48, 5'4" with a wt of 274 . I want to do this I'm tired of being sick and tired. I just don't want to be a repeat failure. One of my girlfriends has Gastric bypass over 1 yr ago and she looks wonderful. I'm tired of being the big girl in the group with the pretty face. Ok enough ranting and raving. :-) Fran

Hi I'm new here but my surgical date is Sept. 19th, I'm excited and scared. I formally had a Lapband that was removed 5/11. So I don't want to be a repeat failure. Fran
