  1.    Heidijenn reacted to a post in a topic: 3 months post op, stomach noises
  2. I am 3 months post op and my stomach makes noises all day long is this normal and how long does this last, I hate sitting in a quiet room and having my stomach talking to me constantly. I also get this feeling like a air bubble in my throat all the time and it makes me burp all the time am I causing this somehow or is this part of the after effects of the surgery?? Neither one is painful it's just annoying as crap. Thank you

  14. Hey Everyone, I just had my surgery on Dec. 8th and I read on here that if you call the Genepro flavorless protein powder phone number you can get a free sample, does anyone have that number or know where I can get it? I don't want to buy a whole bag and not like it, even though everyone says it's great!
  15. This just scares the crap out of me, I am supposed to have surgery on Dec. 8th, I'm already panicky and now I am worse, that is exactly what I am scared of happening to me after surgery and I won't be able to handle that, so what do I do???

  17. Hi all, I'm from Mississippi not Georgia but it's the South. My date is Dec.8th and I am scare to death but can't wait to start healing and loosing the weight and get more energy!!! But soooooo nervous!!!!
  18. @@Goals, that is exactly how I feel, I am just going to take it one day at a time and like my brother told me once all the weight starts coming off I will be excited and know I did the right decision, I just want to hurry up and get the surgery done and get to the healing part and getting used to my new life and new relationship with food!!!!
  19.    Heidijenn reacted to a post in a topic: Help with the feelings
  20. My surgery date is Dec. 8. How do you change the feelings of panic and anxiety to excitement??!!!
  21. Mine is December 8th too, good luck to all of us!!!
  22. Hi everyone, I was just wandering I haven't had surgery yet but I hear of some people getting sick off of certain things, when this happens is it immediate and how long does it last? Is is just vomiting that is the outcome or does it come out the other end too and do you need to be close to a bathroom after eating certain things? Thanks just trying to get myself prepared for anything with this surgery!!! Then maybe I won't so panicked about this whole thing!! Thanks
  23. I know this is going to be a stupid question but has anyone after having surgery gone on a cruise and got seasick when they never got seasick before? Will it affect your new stomach differently then it did before??

  34. I know i have been on here before and asked the same question, but I really need help! I have done all my pre-op appt's only have one more left. I am scared to death of making the appt. everytime I think of giving up popcorn, pizza, lobster, and anything else that tastes good and is not good for you I panic and tell myself I can't do this!!! The liquid part, I am trying to drink more Water and the most I have been able to drink in a day is 48 oz, and read stories of people passing out, being dehydrated and that scares me. I know you are all saying, you need to quit you are not ready for this and your probably right the problem is THIS IS MY LAST OPTION I can't just cut down on eating on my own so what do I do???? If I don't have it this calendar year I will have wasted all the other pre-op appt's and will have to start over in the future if I try again to do this!! I really wish I could just by like all of you and just put on my big girl panties and finish this but I am petrified please help me, Sorry so long!!! AlsoI am seeing a therapist but I don't think she can help me, I have talked to her about it and she just says I need to make this decision myself and I am thinking about it too much!! but thats what I do I obsess over crap!!!! HELP!!!!!
