Down 52 lbs went from over 300 lbs now in the low 250s. I can see my weight loss and also can feel my bones on every part of my body. I'm experiencing pain if people grab my arms or touch my legs. Some 1 hugged me around my shoulders. The pain made me scream. Is this normal.

Thank u ladies. I eat Special K cereal 1-2 meals a day and fruit. I agree I see several people on the site 4 months out and they've lost 100 lbs how is that possible.

Surgery: April 9

Bmordan, My aunt suggested I try Vitamin E. she had lap band revision to gastric bypass and that's what her dr suggested she try. I actually got mine from GNC but any health food store should have

Angeleyes_oz, I think it depends on how many incisions u have. I had 5 incisions. 3 of them had 2 staples 1 had 1 med incision that had 4 staples and then I have a long incision that had 7 staples. I got my staples removed last wed it wasn't bad. My incisions healed very well over the week period. I had surgery on April 9.

Mrsplusamericajacksonville, Just get a robe for when u walk around. Wear the hospital gown. They will be checking ur stomach often for bowel sounds, drainage, and vitals. You will be happy 2 not be restricted 2 a closed in gown. Plus you r going 2 be in the hospital all u will see is scrubs and robes so u won't be out of character. And once u have surgery u may not be up 2 putting on those pajamas. Be comfortable because you can't be sure what ur pain will be.
