You have to remember that your stomach was just cut in half, the nerve endings were also cut so you may not be experiencing much feeling but that doesnt mean things arent happening. Just take it easy and follow the rules no matter how normal you feel. Congrats!

Cant wait to wear something nice to sleep instead of a big ass shirt.
I cant wait to dress my age.
Cant wait for my stomach not to hang over my jeans. And always look like a rice sack wearing a belt.
I cant wait to say " damn i look good in that dress"
I cant wait for people to not judge me by my appearence but by my brains and heart

I can't wait to wear a pair of nice-fitting jeans with a belt, and my shirt tucked in!
Looking foward to NOT standing on my daily commute because I'm embarrassed to share a 2-seater.

Obama care??? Omg. Look it's up to you to provide the supporting documentation showing you've been obese for greater than two years. You have to ensure you have all your ducks in a row. If they cover it...just ensure you've met the requirements. Tell your mom to get her head out of the mud.

My date is June 12th...super excited!!

June 12th! I am super excited!

I'm home after stopping to have lunch on the way back. It was entirely uneventful. I love my bariatric team. They had the right blend of leaving me alone to read and relax with intermittent stopping by to chat and make me chuckle while I was waiting for my turn. I'll be working with many if not all of the same peeps when I have the big surgery, and it was great knowing I'll feel comfortable with them!

I had mine about 2 months ago. I was so nervous about the EGD. My first time in a hospital not visiting someone else. But it was so easy! One minute I'm talking to doc and staff in procedure room, and next thing I know I'm waking up in another room, feeling like a just had a good night sleep. About 30 minutes later on my way out to my ride home. Easy, Easy Easy.

Headed home from EDG. It was a piece of cake!

Yay! I got a surgery sista! I'm so happy but very nervous. Good luck and let me know how your surgery went.

My surgery date is June 12th also...congrats surgery sista!!! LOL

BOoOom! Haha well said

Omg@tlah!!!! I am positive many sleevers cheated on their preop diet!!! That doesn't mean they will not be successful at their weightloss. Thats why many have the surgery, we cant do it alone even for two weeks. I cheated and Im still gonna be a skinny b**ch when I cheat post op too!!! If you have had this surgery and are doing everthing perfectly, why did you have it done in the firstplace??? That's all!

I bought several long "Maxi" dresses so I won't have to worry about wearing pants. And I can't wear yoga pants to work, otherwise i would. LOL

It was difficult for the first 3 days but then everything just got normal. The month off really helped me alot.
Work cannot tell you when to return. Your surgeon can. That's a lawsuit waiting to happen if your job tells you when to return to work after a major surgery. Especially if your doctor gave you a specific time to return. Follow up surgeons advice. He/she is the expert not hr. they are thinking about the company and not your health. Good luck.

I just want to be sure I'm able to handle ( mentaly and physically) my new lifestyle change prior to returning to work.
