maztermind got a reaction from Emma1981 in Calling all teachers!
Everyone heals differently. I personally have a low pain tolerance, and I had ALOT of swelling which just now started to subside. However, I was banded on July 25th and it took me about three weeks to feel normal. If I had to go back any sooner I probably would have been miserable lol. But, with pre op dieting and post op I've lost 40 pounds and yesterday my co workers were being extremely nosey. They wante to know why I wasn't eating the bagel Breakfast and why I wasn't eating the sub sandwiches that our school provided for us. And I really didn't think people would care, so I was a little irritated lol. Teachers are nosey and like to gossip that's for sure

maztermind got a reaction from 2muchfun in Anti inflammatories
Yes all of this is true. It just sucks because I've found that NSAIDs are the best form of pain relief for myself. So guess I just gotta stick it iut

maztermind got a reaction from HotButterFly in sad
I struggled with this as well. People don't seem to support because they don't understand. Like they mentioned before if you are not mentally prepared you should wait. However, this is something you should do for yourself an no one else. I don't have the biggest support system but I'm okay with tht because I am my biggest support.

maztermind got a reaction from PrettyThick1 in July 25th New Date- anxious and nervous
So my new surgery date is July 25th. I am starting my liquid diet today and I am very nervous. It may be because my family isn't very supportive. How are some of you overcoming the negative feedback from family and friends? Because it is making me want to do this alone
