I came home the day before Thanksgiving. It was a little torturous as well. Just have to take everything day by day. Rememeber it's a life decision. Even though I just want to sit down and eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich so bad.

i am still at the hospital - might need a transfusion due to anemia - all depends on another blood draw.

I am male and don't cry easily but strangely find myself WANTING to cry. It's a bit weird.

Yes!!!! I am not a cryer at all but now I see a damn commercial and I'm crying my doc. Says its hormones stored in fat cells that are released as we lose weight

Don't feel bad I had 8 lost of bleeding but you'll feel soooo much better afterwords

Hang in there..at least you're at the hospital where they can help you....I've has several transfusions due to cancer and I always felt Much better after getting one..i sure hope you're on your way to recovery

I am so sad here. I still feel fat. I am being a big crybaby and starting fights w my hubs. I feel so alone and I am so scared of failing. I have been taking it easy on the food but am still able to eat a bite of this a bite of that. I walked on the treadmill for 22 min tonight. Super slow. Like 1.7mph. I am dying of pain on my left side. Anyone else experience this. I feel like my hubs doesn't get that this was a serious abdominal surgery. Like I'm milking it. He's the one who encouraged me to do it and now is resenting me bc I can't. CAN'T help w the kiddos. I am just a wreck. Anyone else? Any pick me ups? I'm drowning here

Hang in there... It gets easier with the food. The first few days I started at my hubby like the dogs do. He had a PBJ and I really wanted it. Every day it gets easier. Glad you are home!!

Rockin Jess: Only thing I can say is don't push it. That will make it worse. I know you feel guilty right now but you have to heal and just remind hubby about how important this is for you. It will all pass. Everyday the pain gets better and you can do more. Just try to relax now. Hugs!!

Hi family. I just wanted to check on everyone. I've been very quiet. It's been rough for me starting out. A cold' date=' then thrush, and my picky pouch has issues with the antibiotics. My poor hubby is so worried. I'm sad with a little buyers remorse but I expect that will change when I'm back to feel better. I dislike being sick.

I hope all is well. Congrats to any new post op family we have.

Jessie. I had the horrible Left side pain to. It goes away. Tomm I am 2 weeks away and mine got much better. It gets easier just do as much as you can without pushing it.

Today a milestone was achieved! 40 pounds lost since surgery 3.5 weeks ago. My weight loss has slowed but still going South so Im happy. Another 60 pounds to go until Im at my happy point and 80 pounds to the Doc's goal. Lol yeah right! I haven't weighed that low since before I joined the Army 25 years ago!

I had this too. Mine was just under ribcage. Completely normal and it will go away in about 1-1 1/2 weeks. So true that the more you get up and do things like walking the better this is.

Does unjury or any protein shakes give someone the booboo's?

Lol. What's a "boo boo"?

Campka: poopoo's? If so sometime the lactose may bother you.
