Uhhh!! If I smelled pizza...I might spontaneously combust! Lol. No, but honestly I ate 2 bites of cottage cheese the other day too fast and it was sooo painful!! Then I threw up, well, just wretched and spit (tmi and gross, I know) about 10 times and so other people's food is not appealing to me at all since that happened! I'm terrified it will happen again! :( But once I get over the fear...who knows?

Also, I know someone mentioned this before but way did you guys say the pain under the left rib cage was from? I have been having it on and off since yesterday. Also, last night I had some chest pain and I'm pretty sure it was gas cause I had that full feeling, you know? Just wondering what you all found out or if any of you experienced this.

I had wondered if they work. Let me tell you though about the lift. I can't wait to have it done. I've finished having children so that is #1 or 2 on the list of needed.

On a little darker note' date=' yesterday I was referred to a GYN oncologist. Been diagnosed w complex hyperplasia atipia. So complete hysterectomy for me in a month or two. I'm 40 I would have loved a second child but it never happened for me. My daughter is a Jr in HS, so I think I need to get my precancerous organs out of me. After the hysterectomy they take cross sections of the uterus to make sure there isn't cancer in other areas of the uterus. Anyone else on here have this, or a close family member?

I had surgery on the 14th and today is 4 weeks and finally getting over my nausea! Wow who knew it would be that bad! I've lost 23 lbs and not eating much at all but find that I'm being constipated. Ugh! This has been the best day so far :)

Sorry if I'm being a pest, but has anyone experienced crampy pain all over their abdomen? I have it tonight along with some gas (belching) and it's starting to worry me. Could coffee be doing it? Or tuna and lite mayo? Help!

Hey everyone! I am 11 days post-op today and it was the first day that I really started to feel like myself again :) Most of my pain has been gone for awhile, but I have had a couple lingering tender/sore spots that have been giving me trouble. Today I was actually able to walk around almost pain free, and even took myself on a trip to Barnes and Noble! Im so excited, I just felt I had to share with people that understood what I was going through. Hope everyone is doing well!!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
