It bruises more if you rub it. It stings when the meds goes in but try not to rub it since it is a blood thinner. I got one once and I rubbed it because it stung and the bruise got really big!!!

I have been as high as 246 but I started this process at about 220. I am now down to 210 and have a one week liquid diet before my surgery on 5/19. I could very possibly be below before I have my surgery. I am only about 5'2".

I have to do a week pre-op diet that consist of shakes, bars and soup that I had to purchase from the Doctor's office. My Nutritionist said the nurse would tell me a my two week post-op diet what vitamins to get.

I am May 19th!!

Nope mine is one week!

Congrats ...I am May 19th too !!!! Best of Luck !Best of luck to you also!!

I am insurance approved and scheduled for May 19th. I cannot wait to be on the losers bench. I guess May is going to be an exciting month for all of us!!
