NSV: so i randomly went jean shopping and the size 4 actually fit, and really fit. I thought i was going to have to squeeze into them for dear life lol. I've been fat my whole life so this is new to me. The fact that i'm actually a small still blows my mind, but yet the scale still says im overweight smh. I'm still going to view this as a victory.

I'm still sore there occasionally (22 days out today). It doesn't hurt all day, but if I move wrong it lets me know. Like if I put my left leg on the bed to dry off after a shower- it doesn't like that. But it's getting less frequent and less sharp by the day.

A muscle tear (or cut in this case) takes time to heal. Don't push yourself too hard on that area, and make sure you get in your Protein, that helps you heal more quickly.

I found that wearing leggings or workout pants that I can pull up over my tummy helped a lot in the second and third week. It held everything still and didn't let my stomach bounce around much.

Ohhhhhhhh... thank you for the information! I’ve been wondering what is this annoyance coming from. Thank you for such great info.

Lordy .. this hurts ... yes I’ll be honest when I woke up in the OR ... boy .. good thing my doc is extremely hot ... cuz damn.... anywho.. after meds and a rest here and there .. much better .. love my night nurses .. they so nice. My throat is dry as a desert and my belly is made of hearts. Never got weight in. forgot to do it too. Here are some photos.   
Hope my November’s are doing great too!

And it has been getting better and better BUT (dun dun duuuuuuun) I’ve been getting this weird pain where my ribs end. I dunno if to believe this is my new stomach. My only way to feel better is to stand up. Oh and don’t ask me about when I cough... I think when I cough i see my dead puppy. Is hurts like hell! I’m drinking lots .. and I walk. Here are some pics  

Congrats ! You doing amazing!

Just had my one month follow up with my nutritionist. She was very happy with me. I’m down 42 pounds! After three weeks I finally started to feel better

I have soreness/pain in the same spot (3 weeks out). I had gastric bypass, and my surgeon told me that they put two stitches in my muscles: one around the belly button where it's common for a hernia to develop, and another in the area you're pointing too because that was the incision they put the laproscopy equipment into and where they pulled the bisected segment of my intestines out. (Note: so freaky). Basically, the stitch and stretching causes soreness and it's normal.

I still hurt of if I lay on my right side, breathing heavy during exercise causes soreness, and if I stretch funny it can pull too. It gets better!

I had surgery at a Center of Excellence for Bariatric Surgery. These Centers of Excellence are available in many states. The Centers of Excellence provide a complete support for the surgery. There are many components that require a range of specialist beyond just a surgeon who specializes in Bariatric Surgery. They include nutritionist, psychologists, a hospital that specializes in bariatric surgery, staff that work insurance issues, pre-op testing, weight loss and exercise programs, bariatric surgery support group meetings, five years of post-op follow-ups. It is like a "full meal deal", no pun intended.

Being a gorgeous human must be a pre-requisite to be a bariatric surgeon because my surgeon is so handsome that my adult grand daughter wants to go with me to my appointments so she can see him. [emoji4] Very nice personality as well as highly skilled. I LOVE him. He says we are family now because I will continue to see him for years to come.

Congratulations! Yes , I agree nobody tells us how bad that it's going to feel. I could only take Tylenol for pain. So I really suffered but soon it's just a memory and you are going to be so glad that you made this choice. Get better soon you're doing great. Look at that smile!!!
