Sorry you have it, but at least they can help you. Maybe you'll even sleep better after you get your machine :-) I know their times are crazy at the sleep studies! I think some of that was on my mind also. Knowing a person could walk into my room while I'm asleep, and stranger at that. It freaks me out bad enough if I wake up to one of my kids by my bed!! I guess one too many scary movies.

:-) sleep? What sleep?! I slept maybe 3 hours on and off. I woke up at 3:45 and couldn't go back to sleep. I was miserable. You would think that this day and age there'd be a better way than all that. I came back no sleep apnea! My dos was 12/30/14. Spent 2 nights in hospital. By the time I came home I wasn't snoring any more while on my back! How'd you do on your study?

Any idea why I can't post a profile pic? I pick one and hit submit and it comes up with some garb about tapatalk (which I installed hoping it'd help) and then it just sits there saying processing. But it never processes.

^^ here's my photo! I looked soo silly I had to take it. Lol

I'm just glad you can get a profile pic to download. I can't get my pic to download on mobile.

As a teen who would buy a movie ticket but then sneak into another theater to see r rated movies, yes they still show it At least they used to!

I'm only 6 weeks post op, but don't think I'll ever miss anything about being obese. I'm already loving how my body is shrinking all over and the over all differences. I think I have regrets though as far as my pre op diet. I wish I would've enjoyed 1 more soda before surgery, or ate an extra sugar cookie I made with my girls at Christmas. It's kinda silly I guess, but that's how I feel. I was very strict pre op, for good reason, but thinking back that's what I think of.

Agree with all the above but, also remember you just had major surgery. My energy didn't come back until week 5 post op. Hang in there, it'll happen:-)

I'm 6wks 1d post op. I hate going out to eat. The only thing I can eat out well is shrimp. My husband wants to go out for v day but I'm soo not interested. Our fav steak house has a wonderful salad bar, but I'm bummed cause I can't eat raw veggies yet. I'd just rather stay home :-( don't misunderstand, I'm glad I've had surgery, no complications, but maybe I'm just a little blue over food? The very thing that got me in this mess! Yikes

I heard Wal-Mart accepts men as returns after Christmas!!

Hey there! Soo very sorry that you're having tons of issues. I'm 35 as well, married and 3 girls. I hope they figure this out for you, SOON! Keep us posted on your recovery.

Just yesterday I was telling my hubby that I wish I would've had rny before I had my babies. I had soo many complications and 2 of my 3 babies were born quite premature. 1 of them with a long hospital stay. I know we shouldn't play the what if game, but it's hard not to do! I was talked out of pursuing bariatric by my mom when I was 20. What a different life I could've had. I could've enjoyed soo much more if I would've went through with it back then instead of waiting until I was 35! (I'm almost 5 wks post op now) I think it's great that younger people are getting a handle on their life and health. Don't wait until you've ruined your body. Good for you all. Soo happy for you @@zedqueen! I look forward to hearing about your success.

I wish I knew how to quit loving someone. Sigh

My insurance won't cover :-(

@@monopoly2015 I was allowed cheese in my food. My nutritionist referred to cheese as a liquefier. I could add a slice of my fat free cheese or a laughing cow wedge to my scrambled egg. It's a good way to add protein to those refried beans :-)

I have to ask this. Where's your protein at?

Spam is gone :-)

Welcome!

@ , that sucks! I'd think by 8 weeks out your weight loss would make for a looser bra band. I hope this gets better for you! Or you find something that works.

@@LipstickLady ,I'd like to understand that too! I'm thinking the band hits an incision? Mine's pretty close to hitting mine, I just avoided the underwire bras for a couple weeks.

No, I'm doing great at 4 weeks post op! Energy still isn't at 100% but it's daily improving. At 3 weeks post op I was able to stop both my high blood pressure pills. My bp today at the surgeons office was 118/78 :-) Excited to continue on my journey!

How are you doing, other than burping? Lol;-) I had a lot of trouble with burping at first. My dietician actually had me use a straw to help with it. So I did for a couple days until I got better at swallowing less air. She said I had bad technique.

I am a musical person. I relate everything to music :-) Including a very recent bad choice of mine. Long story short, it involved me allowing someone to fool me for over a year. After 2 months my head is almost clear of the mental abuse and power he had over me. Anyways, this song came to mind reading the closing of your post. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8v_4O44sfjM

My fav is breaking bad! Sad that I've watched it all and there isn't anymore. Starting Dr. Who now. Idk, it seems lame, and there are kids who watch it, so I'm watching a kid show?! Ahhh
