Best of luck with the surgery! We will be here to hear how it went and your journey

Best of luck!! And remember to walk walk walk as soon as you can!!

. Take care!!

I felt the same the third day I wanted to eat a piece of watermelon since my mom and daughter we eating it, I did and I was like just the juice and man that was a bad idea I felt so sick after that! Lol lesson learn, I also couldn't get all that liquid in even now I still have issues with drinking that much Water but do try with my protein! Is a learning process so don't get discourage and trust me when I say our hormones will play tricky games too! After a week I felt like I made the worst mistake of my life and came here and I was not alone! We all go thru different emotions hang in there and try to not give in the food so u don't get sick!

Best of luck!

I don't think so .. To be honest they did it at the hospital and I don't know what they use I know it hurt every time

Cool thanks [emoji6]

Yes I had them too, they call you to check on you and to make sure the surgery is going well for you if u have questions! Also to know any complications or what Protein or Vitamins are working if they are not they do research for you! Is like an additional support line!

Yeah I'm 12 months in and still falls cut it short and now it's taking for ever to grow back lol but is ok I know it will come back!

Please let's keep this about the question no reason for this!

Thanks ladies I wonder the same things like where does it go and how ur body feels.. I was hoping someone did it to give us their story

I've had the Mirena for almost 3 years and it has work great for me at first my period went away but after WLS it came back, doctor said it was normal after the stress from surgery ... Still had cramps but not as bad as before I had it put in.. Best of luck!

Has anyone tried cool sculpting? I saw a commercial and was a bit curious since the only issue I have is a small muffin top :/

Thanks for any reply!

Like everyone says we all felt the same... I was calm the whole time until they took me inside the operation room I felt so sick and started to vomit for like 10 min until I couldn't no more because I got so scare, but the nurses were so nice they made me calm down. Good luck! And remember to walk walk walk [emoji6]

I was going to say the same thing I take Norco and one of the side effects is itching.

Same here I had the mirena for two years before surgery and my cycle was almost not there other than cramps every month and since the surgery March of last year it came back and longer, my gyog said its normal for that to happen after any surgery and it works different in every women!

I think it all depends on everyone ... We know we have this tool and we have to train out brain to get back on track if we fall off the wagon! But is up to you not the surgery how you will be in 10 yrs!

Stay strong, and you can always chat with anyone here if you ever need to! Xoxo

Sorry for all the bad days and I remember those days ... And yeah the hormones telling me that I made a big mistake by having the surgery lasted a few days ... Is ok guys hang in there it does get better and this will be a blur when u start seeing amazing results!!

It could be the surgical gas... Help her walk at home I know when I got back home I used to walk in the morning for a bit so all the gas can get out!! Best of luck and hope she feel better soon! Because it will get better!

I'm in! Been Mia for a few months

I did take them to help me sleep since October and Prozac for depression at first I felt ok, but since I'm still eating small amounts taking so many pills with my pain killers made me more depressed and my anxiety level was crazy high, they had to put me on Xanax so I can calm down at times .. So doctor said it was working backwards for me so I had to stop and the withdrawals are not fun ... Hope it work for you

Does anyone ever drink energy drinks? Such as red bull or spark or monsters? I am about to go through my busy/crazy time at work where I work about 60 ish hours a week. I have not tried anyone of these since my surgery. I am 3.5 months out.

I did (monster) at 11 months out because I went back to dancing and need it energy, at first it was ok but then came the sugar crash and made me so sick since I hadn't been taking that much bad sugar that I had to stop... All I will say is be carful ... They are bad in any way so it might not be worth it after so soon from surgery!

Good luck!

Thanks everyone for replying. I'm mildly dehydrated. It's been a huge struggle for me to get my Water in. I've always been a big Water drinker - 1 1/2 to 2 liters a day - but now it makes me sick. I've pushed through today and forced myself to drink 60 ounces, which I'll make sure to do every day, it so I'm slowly improving and hopefully will be fine in another day or two. So thankful for all the support I find here!

I felt the same way with water so sugar free Popsicles were my best friends in the first few days... An advice I got from here! Try that too to keep you hydrated!

Hope you feel better and things will get easier!

I am pretty frank and open about itches asked. I haven't broadcast it on social media, but most of my friends and acquaintances know.

I have lots of cheerleaders in my corner.

Same here!

Anyone else experience a complete stop of weight loss after roughly 6-7 months post op? I have been at the same wight +- 4 pounds since October. This is onto of starting an intense work out that I have been doing 3-4 days per week since December. 30 pounds to go and frustrated! Yes, I eat my Protein, drink 60 oz of Water and keep carbs low.

I have the same issue.. Went back to the post op eating and Protein and slowly started to lose some lbs but still stuck some days! Today is my 1 year since my surgery feel good but I know I should've lost a lot more in a year. Best of luck hope you start loosing soon..

That's the reason I cut mine I've had hair lost since 7 month post op and still falling and now it won't grow back!
