Omg my body aches everyday. I can tell when I've lost due to the my back will hurt more, why wasn't I warned about this. This truly sucks I feel like a 80 year old women.

During the first couple of weeks it will make random noises during the healing process no matter what you do. Mine will make noises with certain foods it doesn't agree with, if I eat too fast, or if there's air in there (mine is from gulping liquids which I struggle remembering not to do). I think the foods that cause this problem are different for everyone. Mine are lettuce or salad greens, shrimp, spicy food, and sausage. If I avoid those foods, that sound doesn't happen. You just have to play around and learn what your new tummy likes and doesn't. With time it gets better.

Pfft... 2 years out and my stomach is as noisy as ever. Doesn't matter what I eat or drink, it's gurgling or growling or some other sound I can't describe. You just kind of get used to it.

I get embarrassed by the sound my tummy makes all day long, they are so loud. What can I do to stop it if anything? Do certain foods make it quieter?

You look great and younger!!!!

Im 5'1 and Jcpennys and kohls have petite sizes that fit perfect. But honestly since surgery I've been shopping at the goodwill, because I'm only in the sizes for a couple of weeks. I went from a 20 to 14 in two months.

I used TRICARE Prime as well and I'm unsure about the waiting period however the thing that kept me waiting was my appt for my Psych evaluation. Total process took about 4 to 5 months

Ty, I'll try it..

Is anyone else having a hard time sleeping? Ever since surgery I can't sleep more than 2 or 3 hrs a day, I'm so tired but my body physically wakes up and I can't go back to sleep! What did you do to get back in Track? I have tired melatonin and extra Sleepytime tea .. I'm not able to fall asleep unless in helpless tired. Current situation is I've been up for 22 hrs right now. Help a girl out I'm so tired!!!!!!

You really can't compare your weight loss to other being that everyone starts at a different level and everyone body is different. The heavier you are the fast you lose at first. So just trying to get more Protein and liquid to keep your energy up!! Good luck!

The thing that took that longest was waiting for an appointment for my mental eval, once that was done I had my surgery date 3 days later. Just stay in top of your appointments .. Good luck

I have PCOS as well and I know the pain, I'm having my pm put me on a high progesterone birth control for a few months just to even me out..

Not all insurance requires an evaluation, mine did but I have heard of it before
