  1. Yea always having irregular periods! The weight gain! Meds if they put Her on them! Surgeries I've had even to the point they were talking about a hysterectomy! Fertility treatments! Ugh wish her all the luck in the world!!
  2. Have pcos and had gastric bypass! I hope it gets better!! Can't take pcos anymore!
  3. I'm on depo and don't get it but after surgery started the blood thinners and have had it since!!! My ob said that will cause it to start.
  4. I'd get someone else!
  5. I constantly was urine tested! But I would quit 2 weeks before every test and always came out fine.
  6. Kookieto I'm from Southampton nj in Burlington co.!!! I have a family member in Roebling runs for florence ems that also had rny gonna be getting revision! Nice having someone close by!
  7. Same here thurs I'll be 2 weeks out still hurts! Dr said its bc they use the biggest tool through there and really had to push through the muscles!! Feel better soon!
  8. Yes my back pain started from the second out of surgery and still kind of does not as bad! Nothing helpped!! Not walking not even the pain meds sitting hurt only laying back helped! Dr said if it gets better good If not then let him know. He also said when they intibated me that they shove blankets under your upper back to help them tube ya. Maybe they did that to u too?. And that could be what's causing the pain bc u could've been on it for the duration of surgery which was 3 hrs for me.
  9. I felt the same exact way! I'm 9 days out now it's getting a little easier but still get the the regret feeling hope it goes away the more n more I lose weight! Hope it gets easier for you too!!
  10. Glad I'm not the only one!! I don't know y I'm having such a hard time! We went for my post op appt had my husband kids and g am in law and they were hungry so We ALL stopped at Wendy's but of coarse I can't eat anything not even a salad! It's just hard sometimes and it's kinda starting to bring me down. Can't go out drinking or have a cig... I thought I was sooo ready for this now I had the surgery and I'm like ugh.. Love losing weight but didn't realized I loved food so much. Should've realized it when I was 273 huh?! Lol o well can't go back now!
  11. I'm getting sick of liquids all the time! I want food and bc I can't I making me want more! And I can't eat! I feel like I'm going nuts.. Start puréed on the 17th n can't wait to have some other tastes , and something a lil thicker. Is it hard for other people too? Everyone says don't worry this is temporary and I know that it just sux. Just want to bite something!
  12. Two weeks pre op 273 one week post op today 250
  13. My drs said its best to wait but if it happens baby always gets the nutrients they pull em from u. So u end up low not them lol. I can't wait to have another baby
  14. I know what you mean! I think like I can feel my stomach and the food that goes down! Like its weird I literally can feel it go down! I'm only a week out so don't know if it goes away. Think I feel the same thing lol
  15. But after surg my dr said drink only water untill I feel I can stomach to take more in. Hydration is more important at first then the protein. U do need the protein but they really want u hydrated so start shakes when u feel I can.
  16. Muscle milk light is my most favorite!! Taste great 100-160 calories and 15-20 g of protein they have different size containers. Love the chocolate! And fills the sweet tooth! Had to do them two weeks pre op n two weeks post then puréed for two weeks then can start reg food starting with softer food
  17. Ur doing great! Good luck let us know how u do!
  18. I'm on the shot and it is not affected!! At least that's what all the drs are saying!
  19. Hello! From the very second I woke up from surgery to now 6 days later I am having the absolute worst upper back pain ever!!! Is anyone or has anyone else experienced is it something I should bring up? And having vein problems from where the ivs where in my hands!! Ugh otherwise doing good.
  20. 4 days out n we had sex. Of coarse took it easy! Lol enjoy!!
  21. I am doing the injections but was told lower belly having no issues. When I had my c sections and got heparin injections I had those issues.
  22. Yay awesome congrats!
  23. Wow congrats!! Glad to see ur doing good!
  24. I was in 2 nights had a swallow test day after surgery. I had to get down 4 medicine cups an hr of water every hr in order to go home. Couldn't but they didn't know that I'm doing good though. They said I'll return to work in a month and I do extremely heavy lifting! But we will see bc I think it should be longer
