So I've been scared to death for the past few days kind of holding it in scared to tell anyone. Ive been experiencing some shoulder discomfort for the past week which after much reading I've learned is the sign of a leak. I've been super paranoid and finally got the nerve to call my doctor yesterday. I kept hoping it would go away and it didn't. Well the doctor called me back yesterday but I missed the call. They called today and had me go straight to the hospital where they performed tests. One which involved an IV of iodine that made you feel extremely hot and has a funny sensation that makes you feel like you are peeing on yourself. Anyway my doctor called and said I am good. I almost cried in the office. He said I did the right thing by letting then know. I will be three weeks out tom. and feel great. Anyway just felt like sharing. I'm still not losing a, lot of weight but my protein and water intake gets better everyday and my daily walks are up to 4.5 miles so hopefully the weight will follow.
Word to the wise if you aren't feeling good dont be like me and hope it goes away. I could just hear all my critics saying that's what she gets for using surgery to lose weight. People assume bariatric surgery is magic and you just get skinny they have no idea!
