metformin did the SAME thing to me.. Im on glipside but my readings go down with weight loss and they say I may be able to go off the medication.

My doctor said I could take aleve on occasion if I had to..

It took me 3 weeks before I started feeling semi normal again.. There were days I asked myself WHY did I do this? Days I cried to my DH saying I JUST want to feel good again! Now, 6 weeks later I feel WONDERFUL! It takes time and everyone is different we all tend to expect it to be done and over and that we will be right back to doing what we did before but, it doesn't work that way..They say this is life changing and they are not kidding it humbles you.. It also makes you listen to your body.. Good luck it DOES get better!!! Banded July 5.. Lost 40 lbs...

gas pains stink! I had them for 3 weeks.. never got the shoulder pain. mine layed under my breast bone.. walk Walk WALK! It helps as does gas x and a heating pad. good luck.

surgery was july 5 and ive had the pain a couple days

Thank u all for the feedback. It feels better today and I think like penguines forever, I just strained something.

I am having pain around and to the right of my port incision and there appears to be scar tissue building up around the incision. I am not talking about pain when you touch it.. Its an ache all the time.. Should i be concerned or has anyone else experienced this? I lifted on a box in my shed that was heavier than I expected could i have done something? Should I bother my Dr. with this or just wait till I see him?

I am 3 weeks post op, going into week 4. I did not follow the diet to a T Mainly because, I was starving and physically ill.. I moved to puree early and felt 1000 times better. I dont eat fast food but i wont say i never will. 6 weeks of liquid IS the RNY diet and with no restrictions you WILL be hungry! Good luck to you.

no choices.. 2 inches above the belly button.

I dont remember there being any questions re: sexual abuse in the psych part of my pre op.

new bandsters hoping this works..i felt like i had tried everything too and was really worried i would go through all this to have no success again. I was banded the 5th of july. i have never felt hungry. i am tempted to eat my beloved brownies but, know its not good to eat sweets when protien has to come first. by time i eat my protien im full and no longer want the brownie.. one week post op.. I have lost 10 lbs. it works!!! best of luck.

lindsey is too thin she looked better with a little more on her bones. Kristie HAD to go more than 204 she is tall and taller people carry weight better than shorter. she still looked big! you will never convince me she was only 204 lbs. i think the media makes too much out of all of it though. they are human beings, people gain and loose and others struggle to do both.. why is it so important to the media to make it a free for all? Nothing better to talk about...
