Not eating and just feeling bad all together
Haven't had awful pain any more, feeling ok. I've put off chicken for a while because its getting stuck I think. Dr says this is all normal. Still tired but considering everything I have been doing lately guess thats normal too. Did give myself my monthly b 12 tonight so that may help. I'm down to 234. Happy about that. I am only working 1 more day this week and 2 next so I see rest in my future. Odd because I have never been a nap person Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the tip :-)Ohhh thats why I'm freezing I thought it was from loosing my cushion Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Not eating and just feeling bad all together
Thinking I was handling everything so well til last Friday. I'm a month post today. Nurse at Dr office says it's just nerves waking up and it's normal. Still I dont want to eat anything. Protein from food hurts. Barely getting shakes and Water down. The pain where my large incision was which is healed has come back today on top of it all. I just want to sleep sleep sleep. Not depressed I'm just exhausted. I'm sure that's from a decrease in protein as well. My fiance is so great and supportive but I just feel blah. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Poop
I wasn't even on pain meds when I left hospital that I was taking before about 4x a day. Stopped all my meds the day I left. I had surgery October 3rd and have had 3 bms since. My dr doesn't seem concerned just sat take colace and miralax. Those 3 came only after mom and enemas. Tmi I know. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Is anyone getting married ladies
I am a month post op got engaged the week after surgery had the dress. It was too small tried it on first time today it fit tight but fit. I will have to get it taken in but it's the dress. Someone who loves you will regardless of the outside I think. I already had rolls and some hanging in my arms already. I was self conscious but it is getting better.

The wedding dress goes on and zips. Still very tight but I am so happy. It will have to be taken in by my wedding day I am sure but so blessed and thankful. So much easier to take in. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App
