Of course you should be here! Does this site help you? Do you find comfort here and can you shed some light on certain situations that may arise with someone else who is struggling or just needs some advice on something you have already experienced? What your "friend" fails to realize is that this site is a "SUPPORT" group of people! We don't just support the people who go through WLS and never have an issue or have the picture perfect out come! How boring would this be if people didn't have different "journeys"!? What the hell would we have to talk About?! Don't you DARE for one second let an "outsider" with no freaking clue tell you you don't belong among your own! How dare she even say such nonsense?! You do what makes you happy!

True!

Thanks for the recipe...hope your feeling better!

Protein pudding! But I have a feeling your going to see a LOT of it there

Welcome! Just take it day by day..try to not stress.

Thanks! Happy holidays to you as well!

I would say it's all in how they were taught. Just as we nurses don't do patient care exactly alike. It's all in the training and just overall care in general. It sounds like your DR is very Thorough and admit about certain aspects that he deems the right way for his practice, it doesn't mean your friends DR isn't a good surgeon. My surgeon is also a top trauma surgeon and he didn't recommend any protein shots in the morning and we sure as heck don't spend and hour talking (he's way to busy for that!) But he did answer all my questions ect......I also had a drain it's just all in the practice! Sounds like you have a good one

Congratulations!

Yay! Hope your recovery is speedy! Congratulations!

It could be from what ever meds you may be taking. And sometimes even when we think we are drinking what seem like a ton it's really not as much as our body actually needs. It will go away...eventually.

I would say it all depends on how much work your willing to put into it most numbers are achievable if you do the work. Good luck!

Girl take your pills! Even if you don't "feel" acid its in there and it could cause all these symptoms PLUS ulcers In your new stomach!
