So my symptoms got worse and I went to the ER... turns out I have a kidney stone! They gave me some meds and I’m now feeling better... whew!!

Day 3 post op for me. Everything has been going so welll until this morning. I think I drank my breakfast too fast and started vomiting, mostly foam. I also have this terrible sharp pain in my lower back. called the doctor and took some pain meds, starting to feel a bit better. Hopefully the dr calls me soon, I just need reassurance that I’m ok. hope everyone else is doing ok! PMP ?

Best wishes to you!

Best wishes and prayers to you, Crystal!

Hope everyone who had surgery today’ (8th) is doing good! So far so good! So far so good for me, just a little pain, like I’ve done 3,000 sit ups, haha and I’ve had lots of naps today and made several laps around the nurses station . Wishing everyone a speedy recovery! ??

Glad to hear you’re going home and feeling better, take care ?

Recidivist, you’re not alone...I’ve had a few goodbye parties but I’m ready to be done and start shakes on Friday.

Good luck Hunterjsmom!

Hi March Buddies! Just got a call from the hospital and my surgery is scheduled for 4:30 PM!?!? Hopefully as it gets closer, they move it up. Getting ready to start the protein shakes on Friday. Hope everyone is doing well ?

I started gaining weight in 3rd grade and by the next year, I was officially overweight. I was teased by all the boys and having a name that rhymed with fat didn’t help. In my mind’s eye, I think I am “just a little chubby” vs. the reality of being morbidly obese. I try to avoid full length photos (shoulders and above only, please) as well as full length mirrors. My surgery is 3 weeks from today and I’m starting to get super nervous but also looking forward to saying good bye to “Fatty Patti “.

A few months ago I went on a business trip with a colleague and didn’t fit in my coach seat. My co-worker was kind enough to lift the arm rest, but I was so embarrassed to be in her space that I barely moved during the four hour flight. The next day, I signed up for the info session through my surgeon’s office.

Some days I’m super excited and other days I start thinking “what if this happens...” so I start re-reading through all of the forum topics and calm down a bit . I’m also glad to see more people with March dates. Hopefully we will have lots to share with one another ? what at are you doing to stay calm?
