I am so sorry you are in so much pain. The dr. gave me liquid hydrocodone. But I was lucky and only took it about 3 days. except on and off. I hope that you feel better soon.

congrats!!! so happy for you. that is almost my goal weight. I can not wait until I hit 200. i love hearing all the great news. keeps me going.

Hi everyone I am a little over 3 weeks and I am still very weak and have dizzy spells. I guess everyday it getting better but I tried going back to church and teaching the kids and I ended up sick. I still have spells where I get sick to my stomach and have dry heaves I dont throw anything up but gag a lot. its really bad in the mornings. did anyone else go through this and it ended. hopefully soon.. thanks everyone for input.

thank you so much for sharing.I am on my 3 weeks stall and I just started eating real food again.I thought it was because I started on phase 4. But I am so happy to here success. I was getting that "what have I done feeling". still really tired and having blackouts, I know the more I eat real food and get the vitimans I need I will feel better. thanks again for a great story. something to look forward too.

I am craving a diet seria mist.. any hints on how to get over this. I know I am not suppose to have it because of the bubbles.. But I really hate water and crystal light and kool aid. right now nothing is tasting good to me.. going crazy...

I am glad I am not the only one I knew I wasn't suppose to feel hungry but I do. I was kind of glad because every 3 hours or so I feel it then I eat a few bites and I am full. I am only 16 days out of surgery so maybe it will go away. I just feel a empty feeling in my tummy.

I thought about trying that. is the smell better than with the plain broth. that is what gets me. I promise I have my pregnancy nose back. I can smell everything.lol

I had mine done on the 2nd. I can't do broth either I just do jello, icy pops,and juice diluted with water.

thanks everyone.still sore but feel so much better. looking forward to loosing more weight. I love this site because it keeps my spirits up and I know what every I am going through someone else has gone through it..

I didn't know if you go back to him or not since you are so far away.I thought they might make you go to yours. we will have to do lunch when we can have lunch. lol. Next time you are in.

yeah now the other side is sore to sleep on . Not sure what I am going to do about that. lol. flat on my back I guess. But still a lot better than thinking I am leaking goo all in my insides..

its funny that I read this today at Dr's office his nurse and him got into a debate about it. Because on my instructions home it said no straws and he said that was crazy. He said you get more air in by mouth than straw. And of course she did not agree.. did that help.lol

I am six days post op. and today I had the life scared out of me. I was trying to get my protein down when of course I started getting sick. I tried to hurry to get to the bathroom and it pulled my drainage hose. it hurt a little but no blood no worries. well about 2 hours later I was just sitting there when it felt like someone had stuck a knife in my left lung. freaked me and my husband out called the dr and of course they told us to get straight there. They did the dye ct to check for blood clots and the barrium swallow to check for leaks and all was fine. But I still could not breathe without a lot of pain. so the dr. said he wanted to try something and he said he was going to take my tube out. And when he tried at fist it was stuck and he had to give it a good tug but apparently something he saw on the x ray told him to take it out. and sure enough when I got sick today it had went in between my ribs and stuck in the muscle right near my lung. once it broke loose instant relief. of course now I have even more sore muscles but the tube is gone..And I found out I have lost 16 pounds in 6 days.. holy cow.. I know that wont happen all the time but still at least I left with a little smile.

I had my surgery thursday and I am still really sore. I hope that it is all worth it in the end..
