And I have been really depressed crying jags and not wanting to do anything I feel good body wise I'm losing weight I've lost 40 lbs but mentally I'm not so good kinda thinking I should go to my reg doctor and maybe get on some anti depression I do have meds for anxiety but I haven't taken them since I haven't had a panic attack.. Any Help or story's would really help.. Sorry this is so personal but I should be happy my family life is great

I wear my hair in a pony tale a lot and I am finding my hair is getting too heavy we'll I just wanted to see if anyone is having this issue and what they did I'm scared to cut my hair if its going to start thinning soon
  15. I am three weeks postop And I went grocery shopping and picked up a 12 pack of beer.. I really didn't even think about weight But ever since then I have a burning sensation in my left side Of my big Incision is and it shoots all the way to my Bellybutton.. It doesn't hurt when I walk only when I use that side of my stomach muscles.. When I sleep I have to hold my stomach in so it doesn't kill me to turn or get up.. Has anyone else ever had this And if so what did you have to do?
  16. I had my surgery on 5/20 and still have some pain where my big Incision is.. I had to go back to the Er two days after I was discharged I needed pain management sometimes we just need more help, don't be afraid to ask for help
