  1. I get grossed out myself, but there is no way i'm gonna get on my high horse to somebody else as if I had self control before surgery. I actually feel compassion because I know how it is.
  2. Yes, I do have a "dent". It is also due to the scar tissue.
  3. It is just scar tissue building up, more than likely in the largest incision.
  4. I hear it gets much better. I'm hoping so. Even cheating at this point didn't help because it makes you feel miserable.
  5. Does food taste different to y'all? Do have a strange taste in your mouth even if you aren't eating? Going on 11 days post op.
  6. Keeping a big cup of crushed ice to constantly chew in helps a lot!!!!
  7. I'm feeling good. Longing for the days of real food but i'm down 24 lbs so that helps me feel better.
  8. I really think you are fine. Like I said, I've coughed my lungs up and I get that burn bad. My doc said it's normal.
  9. You deserve respect at all times. You are a wife and mother. I'm sorry they aren't being sensitive.
  10. It will go away. Sip on ice water. Don't do it again!
  11. Don't yell at them. Read "love and respect". It's a life saver. By the way, I have a cold and when I cough really hard it burns. I'm 9 days out.
  12. Does it feel closer to normal than 1 week out?
  13. Thank you so much everybody!
  14. I'm 9 days post op and i'm just wondering if the feeling of being full stop ever feel the same. Right now it feels like i'm too uncomfortable to keep eatin yet i'm not satisfied either...
  15. I'm 9 days out and I promise it gets better every day. I was hungry too. Your mind still wants what you are use too. It gets better. Don't worry.
  16. You are way over thinking this. Once the weight really starts to come off, you will be more than motivated to start moving. trust.
  17. Memorial day.... They are closed.
  18. I need to take something to stop coughing but I am afraid to take something for it cause idk what is safe. Any suggestions?
  19. What do they taste like?
  20. I'm still on liquids... Memorial day cook out us going to be torture! Suggestions?
  21. I cannot explain what exactly i'm feeling, but my stomach just feels odd. I guess i'm wondering if anybody else feels their stomach in a strange way.
  22. It feels like I can feel my stomach inside my body. It's like it is all hard inside. it feels strange. Normal?
