  5. yes he weighs you the day at the hospital Well they did with me after I got my gown on
  6. Good to know that it's gas pains. I swear it feels like hunger pains & the growling noises lol
  7. I got home from the hospital yesterday, in a lot of pain as well. The pain meds work, but I throw up sometimes after I take it bc it doesn't sit well with my stomach. Hoping it all passes soon. I barely can drink or eat Soup. hurts going down Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  8. I'm 2 days out post op. Definitely harder than I expected. Im starving so my stomach hurts from hunger pains and when I sip in anything, hurts going down. I'm hoping this goes away eventually? I throw up the liquid pain meds bc its so Gross and doesn't sit in my tummy well, it hurts to throw up. Whats the average amount of days your in pain for post op surgery? An estimate?

  22. sassy sleeved, I know the 2 options are Royal Oak & Troy? I've never been to Royal Oak. Troy is closer to me & I love Troy, its really nice. Is Royal Oak nice too? Wondering why some people choose Royal Oak over Troy?
