  1. Question. I had wls about a month ago and I was wondering. My insicions are on my top half of my abdomen. So when u get a TT do u still see them? If any one has a pic can I c? Thanks.
  2. Its funny my mom tells me your ass has disappeared!! Lol you r going to have old ladys skin. Lol I just laugh it off and tell them everything is fixable !!
  3. My parents told me not to do it that I looked great being over weight. Lol. My mom doesn't belive in dieting. But she's been thin her whole life. After 4 kids she still weied 99 lbs. And she loves buffets and just food in general. She persanaly believes we r all the way we r and that's it. I guess its easy for her. Well I did it anyways. And here I am 39 lbs lighter n feeling great! Do what's best for u!!
  4. Yup that's normal. Mine was also left open I asked about that. Doc said just leave it coverd for acouple days and then just let it be. Lol.
  5. Sorry before had but I do need to vent. I have been noticing a 1 lb weight gain almost daily.. I eat right I walk. I drink a lot of Water. I take my Vitamins. I did move to the purred stage. I'm 3 weeks out. My protien isn't that high but its ok. The only thing I can think of is I'm super late on my monthly friend. But that doesn't really get to me cause I've never been regular. Sssso why? What am I doind wrong? The only good thing of all this is that my clothing fits bigger way bigger. So why does the scale go up. Needed to vent..
  6. I hear u. I'm only 3 wks out I had a horrible week last week. Could barely swollow water. Went all the way down to 221. This week I'm feeling a lot better taking in a lot of liquids and trying to get as much protien as possible through food and I'm up 5 lbs. I'm kinda depressed. I'm hopping it will pass.
  7. Will he take me even though I had thsleeve in mex. I know some dr won't.
  8. Hello everyone I was sleeved on may 7 th with dr garcia. Wonderfull experiance. Now that I'm two weeks out I've lost 18 lbs. Yay. But I'm starting to have a hard time keeping drinks down. I'm fairly new to the area and i was wondering I'd there are physicians here that would take me just for a check up. If any one knows please let me know. Thanks. Oklahoma city oklahoma
  9. I was sleeved may 7 but my doc said two weeks of liquids to make sure everything is healed inside. Its ok with me. I'm kinda scared to go to purreed what if I eat to much and something pops or tears? I guess I'm just wierd like that. Lol

  12. Ok so I started my liquid diet and for some reason or another I'm not hungry.. I have my protien drinks and all but I seem to have trouble even finishing those. I had been preparing myself mentally for so long. And now that its getting closer I have just lost my hunger all together! I'm not sure if this is good or bad? Oh surgery date is May 7th.
  13. Just wondering if that would make the insicions larger or thicker scaring?
  14. I had my gull bladder (I think that's how you spell it.) Removed about 14 yrs ago. And I have minor scars from that. Will they do the insicions on those? Just wondering.
  15. Alma told me to just do a three day liquid diet. But I. Preparing myself mentaly..
