  1. Are any of you on Twitter? I'm looking for WLS buddies to follow. I'm @KylieD87

  5. I'm two weeks post-op and just got weighed at my PCP. I'm down 20 pounds and I still can't believe it. Ahhhh! ????

  8. Thank you! I'm honestly so surprised how good I feel. On Tuesday, I never expected to be able to go. I'm feeling better every day. Hopefully I continue to.

  10. I made it to the game! Feeling great today. Besides soreness and some gas pain, I feel like myself. Even did a little shopping at Target beforehand. I feel super lucky that I'm not overly tired (yet).
  11. Hi, Djmohr! I'm feeling better every day. Besides the gas pain and soreness, I feel great! Going to rest today and see how I feel for the game later. As of right now, I definitely feel up to going.
  12. I'm feeling pretty good. I definitely expected awful fatigue, but so far, some resting and naps keep me going throughout the day. I haven't ruled out the hockey game tomorrow night until how I get an idea of how I'm feeling tomorrow during the day.
  13. Has anyone tried the Gas X strips? Wondering if they work. Also, any chewable vitamins you'd recommend?
  14. Thanks, Trish! My discharge nurse told me to measure and time everything I drink so that I don't get too full, and ultimately vomit. That's where my question stems from.
  15. Who has tried the Gas X strips? Do they work well?
  16. The same incision on me hurts. I don't really have pain from my other incisions. The pillow tip definitely kept me comfortable in the hospital.
  17. Another question for vets. I just had bypass on Monday... This sounds like a silly question, but what does feeling full feel like after bypass? So far, I can't distinguish between gas pain and fullness. I've been sipping liquids all day, so will I just stay full?

  19. How are you feeling?
  20. How's everyone feeling? Yesterday was rough, but I'm much better today.
