    Sensetivity to Smells

    I could dogs, people, everything, which I never could before....it's gotten better but not much...but I'm only 4 weeks out
  3. I was wondering about the stomach/pants issue also and I just hit 4 weeks out and everything started falling off. Didn't think about swelling! Thanks guys and gals!
  4. I, too, can eat anything...I did over eat last night and I won't do that again. My stomach said stop and I went a bite or two more and boy, did I regret it!! I am 3 weeks out and I eat chicken, ribs, just about any protein I can get my hands on the portions are just WAY smaller than what I usually eat. I am still losing the weight so things are going great...
  5. I am 10 days post op, haven't had any pain or nausea. I have lost 12+ lbs already, have been pulled off one of my diabetic meds, my cholesterol meds and am taking 1/2 the blood pressure meds... I would not change ANYTHING at all. I am loving life and ready to see the new me at the end of this journey.

    Chocolate cravings

    I was wondering about choc protein shake...I'm not a chocoholic but I hear the Premier Protein shakes from SAMs club are good...
  11. I wanted the lap band a year ago when I started looking into WLS but many people have probs with it...a friend of mine had Gastric Bypass and her reasoning was she wanted something permanent....that made more sense to me than putting something that could slip and possibly need removing later...it would make all the weight loss and pain of surgery a waste...I only like to do things one time...just me

    Last Supper

    I did the same thing! Mexican, Chinese, Mexican, Italian...smaller portions but I needed to do that...for me.

    Post op pain?

    I haven't been on pain meds since the day after surgery. Surgery March 3, meds (morphine) March 4, nothing since...I think I am doing well...no pain, no nausea, hopefully it stays this way... I think each person reacts differently...or at least our bodies react differently to surgery..

    Vacation after surgery?

    I am headed to Disney World for 7 days at 8 weeks out. We have the dining plan so we are keeping that but I think I should be ready for it. Any advice would be great...oh, GB...

    OPTIFAST pre-op diet

    I only had a 5 day liquid diet...surgery is tomorrow. I am READY! Between Slimfast, Adkins, and the shakes, puddings, and smoothie mixes from my dr, I really haven't had time to get bored w the food. Keep up the good work...the end result will be sooo worth it!!
