  5. Obesity is a disease, they cannot deny the surgery if the surgeons believes its necessary so that you can become healthy and not die from diabetes, high blood pressure, ect.
  6. No problems with me FMLA request, but i do believe it had the kind of surgery i was having. Which HR is not to disclose your information to anyone.
  7. My Nut told me to start taking my vitamins before surgery. I started taking one month before. I am 6 weeks post op, i started walking an hour a day 4 days after surgery and have not missed a day since. I feel great, with a lot energy.
  8. While working out i got real thirsty all of a sudden. I gulped water and immediately felt nauseous for about 15 minutes. Horrible feeling, i was about 2 weeks post op.

For example today i went shopping literally alllll day went to about 20 stores, got back home at 7 pm and still worked out an hour and weights. I have lost 30 lbs.

  19. I have not once regretted the surgery, i am so happy of what my future holds.
  20. My surgeon said it could take 18 months to lose my 65 lbs
  21. First time no problems, and after that i didnt have a bowel movement i took milk of magnesium for two days and everything came out great but i A LOT of blood in my stool for like 4 days. So i have not tried milk of magnesium again. Surgery Nov 9
  22. I have been in a 2 week stall. And after surgery i have only lost 14 pounds which include the 5 lbs i gained at the hospital. I am starting to feel discouraged but alot of people stated that we jusy have to wait this out. I had surgery Nov 9. I guess we will get there if we stick to the surgeons plan.
  23. I let human resources know the date i got my date for surgery. We did not discuss amount of time they wanted me to take off. When the surgeons office sent them the fmla documents he stated a little more than 2 weeks. my job had no say so on when i needed to come back.
  24. Could not have said it better myself. Lol
