    Incision scars

    Good question?? Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  2. I agree with wannabeH I I struggled for 20yrs with weight gain/loss..I'm 5'4 and bmi put me at morbid obese at 276 highest weight..I tried every thing the last 2 urs..gym, diet pills, cutting out foods..no success..I knew I needed something that would internally(physically) limit me from eating cus mentally I was not doing it on my own...I and 11days post op and I am more conscience of my choices/limits more than I EVER have been...Don't get me worng, I was programmed through life that I needed to eat, when I'm running errands, work, visiting so that mental part is a life adjustment.. But now you will think (like me) that preparing foods n snack choices is bes???????????? I don't deal with chronic depression so seeking your doctor advice and keeping him/her updated on your feeling throughout your phases n writing them down in a journal or to us will help☺...Others will ALWAYS have a negative spin on everyrhing ...Making sure this is right for you is the most important thing..Good luck and keep us posted????

  3. I am 11 days out and I feel similar..no dumping tho so I retracted to smoothies and o help my transition..those with fruit veggies(spinach) and Protein powder ..I try one meal (soft food ) at night when I can take my time but eat very little...I call the on call doctor and they told me that the progress from some is slower than others sometimes but continue to get those nutrients in..so I will give it another week and continue to transition to where I need to be..hope you feel better daily????

    Good luck and pressey24 said it is not a race...took 6th day fore to poop..I suffer from IBS to so the pain to pass was horrible..but has gotten a little better..I am 10days post op and the shakes are death to me..when I too liked them b4, I try to drink Water but catches myslef sitting next to a bottle and not wanting it smh..so not want the we visit at all...no cravings nor want food be a use my taste buds are off didn't expect that at all...had hernia repair as well so healing from that has really been my concern so I'm trying to switch gears to drink more..smoothies have been my friend because I add spinach to help the bowel flow since I don't eat..Best of luck ..we have to do this one day at a time..????????

    Why is everyone converting from band to sleeve?

    Good ??? Because I have read a lot of people doing so...My surgeon did not even mention the band to me only the sleeve and bypass..with my choice .I have IBS and the thought of rerouting my intestimes was not appealing to me with my bowel issues already????

  9. You ???????????????? sorry you went through all that..Only thing I experience was a ruptured hernia I wasn't aware of so recovery has its moments (November 9th)..too many antbitics cause bladder infection but resolved and glue stitches itch like crazy????..I was already allergic to seafood and eating healthy so we'll see how this goes????????????..

  17. I'll keep you informed..me an my guy are rabbits BUT he has,been afraid to have sex ..sleeved Nov 9th..not worried about pregnancy at all...we are passed that stage..but he said Hus fear was hurting me/causing more pain than I have been experiencing... Guess I may have to take it from him so he would feel more confident????...he has been a great support in this decision soon I kn pi w he worries about my health first☺ Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  18. We all were doing too much..just because we feel better outside we forget its still healing inside..I ran errands and wore myself out ..came home took some liquids, shower n propped my feet up and felt better instantly....I think that pain was a wake up to gradually get back to yourself but gradually????..hope you feel bweter soon..
