Thank you all i really appreciate it .....i wish my face could just stay this size as it is now but ill be ok ill just focus on the fact my nails and hair are growing longer meanwhile i have heard so many ppl complain their hair is falling out and nails won't grow

I had my surgery nov 18,2019 my face looks so different to me but i always loved my face i don't want to get any smaller than it is now i don't like skinny faces

Good afternoon as anyone noticed that there stomach or other fatty parts of their body is bigger than the other side ...my right side of my stomach seems to be much fattier than my left almost seems crooked

Only those who i eanted to tell know being that ppl see me out at planet fitness or coming/headed there they know im working put they assume that's how im losing weight which is the true because after surgery u will need to exercise everyday walk walk walk drink your water and protein walk walk walk.....the walking helps you heal helps with abdominal cramps and losing the weight...the surgery is a tool to help you but without your effort with exercising the weight is not going to drop as it should

I don't know anyone personally but i have heard story

They gave me solid food(chicken salad) the next day in the hospital before i was discharged i got down 2 small bites and thats that for the next week i just did shakes and water and i was fine in the beginning you are going thru so many changes just give your body time it gets better ....now im 6 weeks out and everything i try is fine i haven't vomited at all not even in the beginning ..... You got this

Great job you got this !!!!

Im 5'2 Starting weight 395(omg) VSG on 11/18/19 Surgery wt: 345 CW 318 GW 200

yes its normal just give it time to adjust plus if u had take home pain killers it going to take time for them to leave your system ....well thats how it was for me since my tolerance for pain medication is very low ...i hate them i feel so high i hate that feeling

No you didn't ruin anything you know u messed up a little but look at it more imof a learning experience thats all do not get down on yourself im going on my 6th week post op and i also tried our traditional New Year meal i had like a spoonful of everything and it went down smoothly except the collard greens i never swalled them i got tired of chewing and just spit it into my napkin but that flavor was everything lol ....but on NYE i tried a garlic knot smh it was down great but i felt full and miserable for hours but lucky i was at a outside celebration so i walked and walked it finally settled .....but to get u back on track id try a day of just water and protein shakes (liquids) im not a doctor but i bet the pain u feeling is gas when i got gas that bad i just did shakes and water the whole next day and 1/2 and walked ...i kept moving and then when the gas started moving and coming out oh it was like instand relief of the soreness ....i wish u all the luck and great health in the new year u got this girl u can do it ....if ur family isn't supporting u turn to this forum we understand and no one here isn't going to let u give up either.....❤❤❤❤ see i took the time to reply to u and its my bday today ?

My husband too he gets happy when im eating something he likes because he knows he is getting the rest of it

Oh thank God i thought it was just me first 2 weeks i understood because of the lovanox blood thinner but its going on week 6 and im always cold ...and im the one that was always hot sleeping with windows open in the winter and im in new york

Its very normal to have second thoughts i did right up until i was laying on the operating table i was crying and scared as hell...the thing i remember was the anesthesiologist saying im giving her a dose of Xanax as well and i woke up in the recovery room needing to urinate i was surprised at how great i was able to walk had pain but it was way less than when i had my gallbladder removed i was a ice eating hall walking fool that whole night and the next morning until noon when they discharged me

Mostly i just get tired of chewing and im done eating after very small portions but i only really get the full feeling drinking water because i have always been a water addict lol

I called my doctors office waited all day no call back (smh) so i took 2 Tylenol we all know it didn't work so i just been a miserable ****** all day
