Recovery time
I was back at work 2 weeks later. Everyone is different. I was still sore. However, my sister was feeling great less than a week after. It all depends

Frustrated
I definitely can relate. Granted, I was pretty dramatic and sassy before surgery lolol. I find myself getting irritated with my boyfriend. And super annoyed with my 2 year old, for well, being a 2 year old. Your body is changing. Big things happening in there! It'll get better

Tell me it's worth it...
Maybe not a month from now, but it will pass! It was the best decision of my life. It's rough at first, but I think they tend to try to "scare" you. It is a BIG adjustment. It's a life change! You will do great!

10 weeks out & in pain when ever I eat
A hida scan watches radioactive material move through your digestive system. My goodness, hope they figure it out ???? And don't regret your surgery! It's tough now, but there's a light at the end of your tunnel ????

February 15 RNY Club
Hello! I had surgery 2/3/2015. Total I've lost 130# from pre op diet and surgery(80ish from surgery). Down to 190# and it is sloooooow moving now. I get 1000-1200 calories in a day. Exercise varies for me.

Yay! I've never been so excited to see 'overweight' on my BMI scale! It's the little things, really!

Decaf. Coffee
I know it's probably okay, but I have been drinking decaf coffee with a splash of chocolate milk lately. They told me coffee was a no after surgery but I don't understand why decaf is terrible? Someone elaborate for me, pleaaaaase?

Skin?
I think age has a ton to do with it. I'm 23, 130# down (75 from surgery 2/3/2015) and the loosest skin I have is on my arms. And even there, it's not much. Try to lose as much as you can now.

SURGERY MAY 4!
My sister is 21. She's from Iowa. I'm 23, from South Dakota. The struggle is real. Commercials are ridiculous. I have an AWESOME Pinterest board full of recipes. You're welcome to add me if you want alyssalynne2013 I feel great! Still would like to lose a good 50 lbs. But they're slowly coming off. This part is hard. But, 3 months out and I feel I'm doing pretty well. And no worries! I don't think you're a creepy stalker, I feel like that aaaalllll the time when I try talking to anyone ha

SURGERY MAY 4!
And, I've got minimal excess skin because of the weight I lost before surgery ???? it's tough, especially after you're on to eating 'real' food. The temptation and head hunger haunt me. It's hard to resist!

I am having a hard time finding ANYONE that's had surgery my age ????????
Hello all! My name is Alyssa, im 23 and live in South Dakota. I'm having a hard time finding people to talk to about my surgery. (2/3/2015) my sister had hers this past week so I can't talk to her about the fun things (constipation, exercise, etc) yet. Does anyone else have this problem, or is it just me? Lolol anyways. I'm down 130# since November (pre op requirements, included) a total of 70# lost from surgery. I've plateaued at 197. My gosh I am so disappointed the scale doesn't move so rapidly anymore. In dyer need of motivation, here! ????????

Finally ....on 100 blvd....the stall is gone!
I haven't, but as a nurse, I see it as a problem soo, so much. People after bariatric surgery don't drink as much and your kidneys don't like that. Try to up your H2O intake!
