Hi there I had surgery on july 22 this year have had very little issues following surgery felt good no prob. Except some very bad nausea. It started getting better and then now for the last 2 weeks I have been waking up every day with nausea and a crampy feeling in my stomach. Some days it goes away other days last the whole day and I throw up everything I eat. Not sure if this is a "normal" thing or if I should be concerned. Sorry for the long post please let me know what this sounds like to any of the vets here. Thanks in advance

Woowooo. Go sophie!! I'm so excited for the journey I am on. Hoping I can keep things going this way.

i work in health care and i know that we are not allowed to make anyone take something they dont agree to. Now with that being said, i was not told i had to take birth control, i was just told that my husband and i needed to take measure to prevent pregnancy from taking place, so i took that to mean wearing condoms of which other forms people may use. I have not been able to get pregnant so i was pretty against taking the pill but when i stopped and thought about it, i knew that i would not be healthy enough early on to have a baby and make sure i did everything to ensure a healthy pregnancy. I hope that you are able to continue on with your surgery and that you can find a solution that works for you.

thanks all, i really could not believe it when i seen those numbers. i really hope to keep up with these losses. And cathy im sorry your doc was discouraging to you. I sometimes dont think that they actually think before they say things. mine today constantly reminded me that i have "Alot farther to go and its up to you" i was thinking yes I know but are you at least glad for what I had done. Just keep pluggin along is what i am gonna do.

had my first post-op visit. And as of today I have lost 93 pounds. its so crazy to me that in less than 3 months i have lost this much already. and its not only the numbers on the scale. today i got my seat belt on without an extender. I just find there are so many small things that i can do now that people usually take for granted.

Been feeling pretty good. Getting my liquids in. No I still have my gallbladder. I have some rumbling through my stomach after I drink anything. I feel ready for some thicker foods like yogurt but can't have that till next week. My pain has been minimal but I did do to much yesterday and had to take some pain meds. But much better than I thought it would be.

my husband said maybe an hour or so. and that was mainly because i had to have central line placed and they had a hard time getting it in.

Update. Had a rough night the day of surgery. Severe nausea and retching. The next day and today have been better. Eating my popsicles and sip sip sip.

So tomorrow 9 am my life will be forever changed. I have learned a lot already but can't wait to really start living the sleeved way of life. Keep me in your prayers please. And I have to have a central line bc I am a horrible iv stick. They never can get me.

I have watched her progress on youtube and her journey has been an inspiration. I can't believe my surgery is actually the day after tomorrow.
