I just have to say that you inspired me. I also have had a couple of self inflicted stalls from a bad couple days here and there, and have also allowed the what ifs to bother me. Just, wow. You look amazing and I think you will be happy once you hit your goal. HW - 508, SW - 488, CW - 387, GW - 230. God is Good!

Thanks, and to God be the glory. I ask Him to help me everyday and He hasn't failed me yet. Sent from my Nexus 7 using BariatricPal mobile app

Good job bro. I have lost 87 since April 1st. So I believe it! Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

The pain was in the main incision. I felt fine 2 days after wearing the strap. The strap worked as a girdle and helped tremendously. I recommend taking as much time off as they are willing to give you. Thankfully my job was fine with it. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

I had the same problem.... I returned to work 5 days after surgery, but I work as a cook at a steakhouse. So there is a lot of lifting and prepping. I started to get really bad pain my 2nd day back at work. On my 3rd day back I had to leave. It hurt so bad. I realized I needed more time off. I was given a white strap that went around my abdomen, and I noticed when I strapped it tight that it supported my abdomen and relieved the pain. I kept wearing it everyday all day until the 6 weeks were up. I then returned to work and have been stronger than ever. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

I also tried beans from del taco around the same time. It's like $.89 for the beans alone, and I could only eat about half. But, both of those was all I was able to tolerate Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app
