Bronxmerci

@@amylynns good luck today! I had the same gown!

@@smiley922 looks like they are going to heal up nicely. Why do you only have 4 holes?

@@AuriP I can't even see them to be honest, they look great. I hope mine fade away, I'm usually good at healing.

@@layknee lmfaoo me too! Right before surgery I told the doctor that if he has to open me just seal me back in and don't do anything! I had to consent to possible opening if my life was at risk. I had an open appendix which you can see the indent when I was 10, and c- section, didn't need any more slits.

@@layknee yours look great! I didn't get the strips put on mine, just glue. Here it is. There's one on the side of my belly button that you can't see but it's there. E]xcuse my tiger stripes lol 10lb baby!

@@Naynay31 my zinc was on the low side not low but close on my preop bloodwork so I googled and zinc helps skin snapback after weight loss so less loose skin. I went and got it from amazon since it was low to he'll myself not get droopy.

@@layknee wait baby food? Lucky! I can't start any until tuesday! I've only been drinking god given crystal light, and water, g2, diet snapple,and my shake barely, I bought genepro and mix that with my juices. No broth because I'm tired of it. That's all. And @@Naynay31 I'm gonna have to rearrange my pills lol. @@Beni I'm not taking b12 or biotin, but I am gonna start biotin next week when I get off my stool softener because right now I can't add anything. @@freelyme thanks!

@@Beni so you know! I didn't want to go to the er! I suffered recovering from my c section and that horrible pain. Those percs messed me up like I felt it in my gut and going down I was miserable, like how do you feel like pooping but its just stuck there? My god, I think I took more than 15 laxatives. When it came out, there was a force I felt it all come out, I even screamed I didn't know that could be possible, idk how my intestines didn't pop. Geez I even took pictures because I would of made the book of world records! Idk how it came out it was like a basketball. I hope I poop soon because I really am scared of going through that again. Okay I'm done with the tmi, sorry guys.

I didn't kno the multi had iron! I'm taking iron aside from it uhmmm oops I'm going to ask @@freelyme since my pharmacy and docs are closed.does Multi vitamin have iron? I was precribed separate iron!

@@Beni you can take them, I'm taking 2 percs, zinc, calcium, multivitamin, stool softener, and iron and prisolec, the iron at a different time though. I think you will be fine. I break it into different times. I take the percs and zinc with prisolec, then 4 hours later I take the multi with calcium and percs, then at night iron, stool softerner and percs. They fit lol, its the water to get them down that fills you up. Talking about stool softener, TMI WARNING*************** when will I poop? It has been like 6 days. When I had my c-section I didn't poop for 14 days!! It was hard and stuck inside of me, I had to take 15 laxatives over a 3 day period and then it was like hell getting that devil out, it was like 15 lbs tmi I'm sorry and then it wouldn't flush, I had a poop that was bigger and harder than the hole itself, I would of died I think if I didn't get it out, my doctor said I should of let the nurse take it out, they break it up inside of you or something because you can't deliver it, it was the worst thing in life, but when it came out I felt pure relief, like I never felt that in my life. My poop was literally stuck in my tunnel just trapped. I put on gloves and used vaseline and dug up in there and felt it, it was a rock. I'm sorry guys it was the worst thing next to the csection, I don't ever want that to happen to me again.

At the hospital I took them with broth, and I am mad because they didn't give them to me prior like you guys, I had to walk to the pharmacy after discharge to get them because they gave them to me at discharge. I am going to ask for more on tuesday, 26 pills and its 2 every four hours, those babies are almost gone. I'm not in pain, but idk if I'd feel like that if I ran out because in the morning it feels like someone beat me up and put me through a wall lol but its soreness not pain. Btw how does your incision look for those of you who had it already, because I feel like my doctor respected my body and treated me with a lot of love, you can't see 3 of the 5, they look like pleasant box cutter stabs lol. 2 of them are on the sides of my belly button and I had to look for them to see them.

They didn't tell me to crush em but you can @@Beni my poor tummy got full off those 2 pills and ounce of water to get them down and they also get stuck in your throat, but I think they taste horrible while not crushed, if crushed I don't think they would be bearable.

Wait 60!? They gave me 26 hell no.

Okay I retract my statement if its better lol, I haven't felt any pain at all so maybe that's why woo hoo!

@@Naynay31 I put it back in after I woke up lol. And yea I'm wondering why I got percocet too, like wtf?

@@layknee lmfaooooo at did that work for you, geeeeezzzz you have me dying with that one, how dare her, good for her lol, what did she say I bet that shut her mouth up. Lmfaooo. I love it lolol I almost popped a stich laughing.

@@amylynns aww amy sweets, I know how difficult and frustrating it is when someone who has never been obese thinks we are lazy and could do so much to be healthy, I have 4 brothers with fast metabolism and they don't work out, eat all they want , and have been slim their whole lives. They always feel like I could do this or that to lose weight. I hope that it works out with your parents and in the long run they will see that this is the tool we were missing to be healthy, I know as libras as well we always want our parents approval, well with me at least. I'm glad you finally told them and you are happy now. I only told my mom, and she told a bunch of people on the low and I had to stop speaking to her for months for her to understand that my business is mine and she has to respect it, she gets it now and has been more private about my life. Your day is coming soon and I wish you the best and good luck ! Sorry for this post being everywhere in terms of what I wanted to say, I tend to get my point across in a scattered way, lol.

@@Beni aww beni baby, I hope you feel better and I hope you guys raise the money and you're so kind hearted. Everything will be fine, and your surgery will go as planned. Did the medicine work? And maybe the shake was a one time thing. I really hope you're not getting a virus and its just one time. Feel better .

@@layknee at my hospital they kept bugging me about my fluids, and trying to bribe me telling me if I do this I can go home. I finally got mad and told them if they are going to discharge me based on my liquids then please leave because I can't get it down yet and your bribes are getting annoying and I feel like you're kicking me out and I'm not ready. The doctor was so annoying and I felt like I was going to explode. At my hosital they didn't do a drip test or anything. I just couldn't drink anything for 24 hours after surgery, then it was the 1oz every hour for 4 hours, then 2oz every hour for 2 hours, then 3oz every hour for 3 hours, then when you could do 4, it was time to be discharged. I couldn't drink protein either. My genepro arrived as I was walking in from the hospital so I got some in today, I made a shake and then mixed genepro with diet snapple. I really feel so full, but I can drink water very fast.

@@Naynay31 yeah any metals in your body. They use a zapper to seal things and if it touches metal you can get shocked, even though the nose ring is so far up they just use caution.

Hey guys i am 23 years old, i am extremely excited for my surgery coming up in October. My first visit was on August 6, 2014 and I am so happy that I was able to get the process done within 2 months. I am looking for buddies that are getting surgery around the same time as me so that we can encourage each other. I haven't told anyone that I am getting this surgery done so I am on my own. My birthday is on the 4th and I call this a birthday gift lol. I am 5'10 and 298 and my goal is to reach 150. So if you are getting surgery in October as well please feel free to comment, lets keep in touch! p.s. idk if i should post pictures up yet...should i?

@misstvb@Beni thanks ladies, I am so surprised that I haven't felt pain. When I woke up from surgery I was crying like a baby but after that they took care of it and it hasn't been bad at all, I feel brand new, they even fixed my back. I'm just dying to taste anything. Water has gotten so boring fast. I just took pills and they weren't hard to swallow either. I think my period is coming down too, which is odd because I was on a 90 day cycle prior and my last period came in august I think the surgery fixed everything in me that was screwed up.

@@layknee are you home? I have gas too, but I just lay on my side and it just flows lol. I did like 10 squats and it helped also. I haven't had any protein yet, I think I start today when I leave, I'm looking forward to it, all I've had is water, and broth. Thank @ amylynns! I'm looking forward to the menus you sent me once I get home, I'm craving a shake lol.

Thanks guys, I let my mom have it too after, she doesn't respect others business.

Hey guys, I'm going home today! I am down ten lbs and finally drinking my fluids. This is my son and I and then me after.
