3 months out anger and mad at the world
ChubRub replied to Hollow star's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm so sorry that you are going through this. I would make an appt with your PCP to discuss. Irritability is a common symptom of anxiety (as is poor sleep), so perhaps some low dose meds or counseling would help if that's the case? Best of luck to you!! -
Having my sleeve surgery tomorrow!
ChubRub replied to PJKS1989's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Best of luck to you!!! There are quite a few guys on here who started out at a similar weight, and they have crushed it! Just like you will do!!! Welcome to the rest of your life!!! -
I needed to take naps for the first 2-3 months after surgery. It's very common to feel a lot of fatigue in the beginning and your body continues to heal from surgery. Best of luck to you!!

Obsessing about Plastic Surgery!!
ChubRub replied to ChubRub's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
2 months until my PS!!! It seemed so long ago when I booked it, but now it will be here soon! I'm increasing my iron intake in prep for surgery (esp for pre-surgery labwork). Will start doing pre-reqs next month (labs, mammogram, chest xrays, etc), so that will keep me busy! Fun stuff!! -

I know! LOL! I guess the bright side is maybe they never realized how big I used to be! Ha ha!!

I didn't tell my kids only b/c I didn't want my extended family to know, and didn't trust that my kids wouldn't slip and tell. They have not only never suspected anything, but they haven't even noticed that I've lost weight! Kids!!! LOL!!!

I’m thrilled to have reached goal today! Coincidentally, it happened on the anniversary of my initial consult with my surgeon. I’m down 100lbs and feel lighter than air! Pics are below! For those that wonder about loose skin, yeah I gots it! I’m having PS to remove it, but I’ll take the loose skin over fat any day! Tried to show what I look like with clothes on, with shirt pulled up and with loose skin untucked out of my pants! LOL!

Whats does the hospital give for the gas ?
ChubRub replied to dal101's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Agreed!! A lot of the gas you feel post op isn't inside your stomach (therefore stomach meds can't get to it), but is rather from them pumping you up with gas to do the surgery. -
A little about Me

Thanks! I got it off Amazon (brand is 90Degree) I also just ordered another Jacket from Athleta that was on clearance. It's a size XS (which is why it's on clearance!!) but I'm hoping I can squeeze into it. Will post pics when it gets here! I definitely have a shopping problem, but man it's been way too long since I enjoyed wearing clothes!!
