  1. Yah that happened to me... Same thing it eventually drained a little and that bump underneath went away... My dr said it was pushing the sutures out too... And it was only one incision . That will just leave a bigger scar but who cares lol
  2. My legs were sore then too... Both legs... Weird... My surgeon made me get an venous ultra sound for blood clots ... Thankfully they weren't but it's better to be safe then sorry!
  3. Happy birthday to the beautiful Alaina!! Im so Proud of how you are doing ! You are such a Great person! Very sweet and kind! Happy Birthday again girl!
  4. I love that dress on you! Congrats!!
  5. I have a big sweet tooth too ... But the sugar free fat free cheese cake jello makes my days happier ones lol! It is really good and I make it with far free milk ! It's not bad at all for you ! eat it it's delicious lol
  6. Wow no offense to your before pic but I think you look a lot younger now!!! looking good girl!
  7. Hey... I haven't replied to you yet been busy but I will I promise pretty lady! But yes I think It's a great idea and of you google them they make all sorts and they just look like bracelets... U never know if something happens and you can't tell them ... I m definitely gonna get one I just am trying to figure out which one.
  8. My friend who also had it done told me its because you create new blood and with the new blood comes new antihistamines which could make people itch... Sneeze....have allergies that they didn't have before Etc... If you think about it actually makes sense lol ...I guess there's nothing you can do except sneeze lol so God bless you
  9. Yah def! Smells of any kind were heightened and i was nauseous from them. Everything seemed so power full but I'm a week post op and it's much better. I can wear perfume again lol
  10. I had my first follow up today... One week post op and down 11 lbs!! Whoop whoop! So excited! I do have thrush though lol but they gave me meds so let's hope this goes away!
  11. Good luck! You will do fine! Just remember to walk often! !!! Congrats
  12. It all depends how you do individually.. I spent one day in the hospital and I was able to walk a few hours after surgery. They get you up and you walk the halls a lot if you are smart. When you go home it's not that bad. You can walk all the time. You are just sore and you aren't walking two miles just short distances. I went shopping at target the day after and was fine ..As for driving I don't know my dr said two weeks but I go today for my one week follow up and ill ask then. I don't take pain meds anymore. Hope this helps
  13. Oh ok good ! Just making sure. Everyone's different. I'm on just liquid and apple sauce or yogurt for one more week lol I can't wait to eat a bite of an egg lol
  14. Be careful eating those . My best friend had those and suck on sugar free candies and would get bad diarrhea because of whatever they use to sweeten it that's not sugar. Lol just be careful
  15. I had five ounces of apple sauce yesterday and thought the same thing lol...
  16. Thanks guys! I'm just gonna keep an eye on it. I have my first week post op appt Monday so I'm going to see what they say... I hope it's not thrush lol I did get a tongue scraper so thanks for the advice! it did help a little .
  17. Congratulations you look so beautiful!
