So I’m / weeks late for my period . And it came on today. A few hours later I woke up from a nap and this piercing and stabbing pain I never felt before happen. It was quick and as of right now only 1 time . I know my hormones are going to be crazy but HOLY shit .! it woke me up out my sleep.

Hey all, I just had surgery on 5/6. I lost 20 Pounds. ! Everything has been going perfect. Except the heart burn. if i drink water or anything my chest immediately catches on fire lol . I just started taking the 1 tablet a day the DR prescribed but honestly is this forever?

Thank you!! My dr said your first month they have a goal . But realistically Most can reach it . Just do as much as you can and take your vitamins youll be fine! My pain has calmed down a lot. My pain mostly comes from heart burn and acid reflux from water lol

My hardest part is getting fluids down . Omg it hurts so bad . I’m trying my best to get in as much as I can.! My doctor said 80 oz a day . PHHHT he better be happy I’m sipping 30 oz a day. I’m happy it’s over tho . But don’t let ppl fool the pain is real .!

Omg guys . Sorry I’ve been gone but the recovery process is real . I could barely keep my eyes open and when I did it headed for the bathroom and a few laps in my yard then back to sleep . Now I’m sitting on the edge of my bed at 2:00 am can’t sleep and listening to my stomach cursing me out
