    Leg pain

    You might need to talk to your doctor about that. I remember my doctor asking me if I had any pain in my legs. Good luck and I hope it gets better soon.

    Extended leak time frame?

    I was told it took 6 weeks for your stomach to heal. I hope that's right.

    2 week liquid diet killing me help.

    Good luck with your diet. It is difficult but try not to over do the cheats. After the surgery you won't be able to because the possibility of a leak is to great. I will be praying that it will get easier.

    Confused

    I am a little over 5 weeks post-op and I have lost 25 lbs. that includes 5lbs. pre-op. I had been on a two week stall and yesterday morning the scale finally moved again. Don't get discouraged, it will happen.

    Exhausted, sick frequently and scared, help!

    Sounds to me like gluten intolerance. I have it and all of your symptoms are associated with a gluten intolerance. I would definitely go gluten free and make sure that's what it is. Anemia is a symptom also. Good luck in finding the source of your problems.

    I think my scale is broken

    You may have hit a stall. Don't get discouraged, sounds like you are doing everything right.

    I also didn't tell anyone but my grown kids, my husband and my best friend. I didn't need anyone telling me that I shouldn't do the surgery when I had already tried every diet under the sun and failed. My health was simply going down hill, so it was pretty much my last option. I had my surgery on December 5 and I haven't had any problems. I did what my doctor said and I have not rushed things. After hearing some of the terrible stories about leaks and eating too much and being sick, no way. I ate about a 1/2 of a scramble egg this morning being careful to go slow and chew, chew, chew. I eat potato soup, beans mashed a little with mozzarella cheese melted on top. Just don't eat very much, a couple of table spoons. I have lost 25lbs and I am glad I made the decision to be a healthier me. Good luck the both of you with your surgeries and keep us posted.

    Feeling Alone

    You will get a lot of support here. I did and was grateful for it. Sounds like your husband is trying the best he can. You will mourn food because I do. These are all normal feeling and we all have them. Just know that you will get lots of support and encouragement here. I was sleeved December 5 and have lost 23lbs and have had no problems. Just do what your doctor says and don't try and rush it. Congratulations on your decision for a healthy life.
