  14. thats the thing jennamommy, I dont think my clothes feel any different BUT its very early days yet. I am prob just being very impatient hehe. just cant wait to slip into a nice pair of diesel jeans!! hehe
  15. thanks for all the replies. I feel a bit better after reading them. I DID have a bit of a cry today. I paid for this operation myself and was thinking today that it was all for nothing!!! :/ but as I said, feeling a little better. have been promising myself NOT to weigh in until Friday but I just couldnt help it. will have to try harder. I have struggles for so long with my weight and was so looking forward to seeing the scales actually move DOWN..... Have to just keep going, I have no choice now
  16. Hi Hiya. Just wondering How rapid the weight loss was for you in the first cpl of weeks? I weighed myself on.Friday, 7 days post op and was thrilled with an 11lb loss, weighed myself again today , 11 days post op.. and I've lost Nothin since Friday. I'm a bit freaked out by that, was expecting a loss. I'm now thinking I'm gonna be one of those ppl who doesn't lose anything much after RNY. Feel like crying
  17. Thanks so much for the replies. I feel a bit more relaxed about it. My husband and kids were keeping their distance from me coz I was stinking, between farting and pooping! Yuk but you will b glad to hear that today, my poop was much more solid, so that made me real happy. But I am missing my daughter's football game coz I don't dare leave the house. But 11bs gone in 8 days, in thrilled!
  18. Great well done! Can't wait to see myself changing!
  19. Hi guys. I'm 8 days post op and my stomach is going MAD with rumbling sounds, I can feel it from my pouch rumbling all the way down the intestines if u know what I mean. Plus I have been having diarrhea the past 3 days, is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks
