Next to one of my incisions, I have a stitch that kept poking me through my skin. So yesterday, I pulled it out a little and clipped it (hoping that it would start to dissolve under the skin) now it's just poking me from the inside! Owwww.... It pinches.... Anyone have this problem? how long will it take to dissolve....?

It's just something you have to go through. It gets better in a couple of weeks but as they are healing you will feel poking and sometimes a burning sensation.

Ok... I guess i'll just wait it out...

...I'd always been told that a burning sensation after something poked you was a bad thing.... ;P

Oh.. Maybe I'll get a pic of a soft cute bunny and everyone will like me. Although, that wouldn't stop some from wanting to make rabbit stew out of me ;)

Mmm... unicorn Soup and rabbit stew. Not eating anything but slop right now makes me kinda bitchy too. That, and my burning sensation... but let's not talk about that.... ;P

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
