  1. Congrats! We are all happy Nd excited for you. Just remember everyone pain tolleramce levels are different. Forst few weeks can be or get rough. Some crying may be involved - you may start asking the y's - y did I do this etc. then focuse on the bigger outcome weeks and months later. Support. Support support is key.
  2. I can't wait not to Have to go to Lane Bryant! I would love to catch the great deals at TJ max and Ross.
  3. I'm looking forward of getting rid of these two little heads I carry around called boobs! I wear a 40G and can not wait to get into the normal bra siZe category. I also can't wait to buy my first pair of none Lane Bryant clothes.
  4. It got better by day 10 Or 11 for me, but I am starting to have severe back pain.
  5. . Yeah I told my friends else was all around miserable, I'm still waiting for light at end of tunnel.
  6. I did hcg drop last year and it did work, but it left me with 4 periods in 1 month.
  7. Yes, the weird burn sensation - the hot poker is the pain that throws me for a loop!
  8. I found the pain to be more than I was expecting when I got home. I was just completely miserable. I had to take pain meds daily. I'm on day 11 or 12 and i still can't sit up for long periods of time. But it does not hurt as bad to laugh, so something is healing.
  9. I swear everything gives me diarrhea - day 11. Does this go away?
  10. Hi vamp, I think you look great before and after! What a smile
  11. Post op 15 days. Down 17 pounds.
  12. I would not worry as much about the diet - I wish i was warned about the pain.
  13. I eat applesauce - natural kind - strained daily and it keeps u regular. If you eat too much u may get dumping syndrome.
  14. I'm still having a hard time with drinking / finding a protein shake. I remember I use to love smoothie king - skinny (no sugar) options. Has anyone tried that?
  15. I can't eat anything outside of jello, soup, Popsicle. I have no Idea how long I live on this without the protein.
  16. I think a good thread would be to exchange clothes! I would love to get rid of my clothes to someone who could really use them once I start really using. My bra size is impossible to find and expensive do I'm hoping in the next few months I can get rid of those as well. I would buy some on my clothes on eBay!!!
  17. The pain is unbelievable! Have you tried my best fried - heating pad?
  18. I never had a baby - but did have a 3rd degree burn. The actual burn pain was worst but it was in a localize area, this surgery make your entire inside hurts and puts you out for days and week. I didn't realize how your stomach controls your turning, coughing, sneezing, breathing, laughing etc. I'm on day 8 or 9 and the pain amount has gone down, but when it comes it's horrible!!
  19. I have roscea and it's in super over active mode! What is going on?
  20. I find the taste of ice (especially tiny crushed kind from zaxby - like the hospital) to taste much better than water.
  21. Wow. 6 nights in the hospital!! How did you do once you got home?
  22. I'm on day 7 and the mention of the word (protein) makes me gag.
  23. I bought baby simethcone ( that's not spelled right) but the liquid stuff they give to baby for gas.
