I had surgery on Monday February 11th 2013!

I am 3 days post op' date=' came home yesterday @ 4pm, & I am MISERABLE!!!! I regret doing the surgery with every inch of me, I am in so much pain, I can barely breathe! I sleep, that's all I do, that's how my body copes with pain is sleep. But it's uncomfortable, I'm having horrible nightmares, I've become anti social I don't want anyone to speak to me or text me or ANYTHING I just want everyone to back off! I don't drink much because as soon as I do I start burping and farting, I guess I'm just upset because they didn't regulate my pain at the hospital, the morphine drip did absolutely no justice, I didn't receive an ounce of relief until I got my percocets yesterday morning and even though I'm still so freaking uncomfortable I'm so MISERABLE I'm becoming emotional all I wanna do is cry and scream I regret this so bad. :'(

I rather be fat and have my comfort foods !

I hope when the pain subsides all these feelings go away I really don't want to regret this for the rest of my life. :'(

I promise you this will pass. I was in so much pain for the first 3 wks that I had to sleep sitting up in a chair, I regretted my decision so much and wished I could take it back. I am now 8 wks out and 100% normal. I am down almost 60 pounds, I have learned how to eat and don't feel like I am missing out on anything. I went through an emotional breakdown as well when I was a couple weeks out. Things will get better.....

Roczy I hope you are feeling at least a little better now. Hopefully those feelings of regret will pass as the weight comes off.

Good morning all, surgery completed at 8pm yesterday. It was an open RNY due to previous surgeries and excessive scar tissue. Incision is 6 inches and pretty painful. Had ice chips all night with no issues, and I am very, very itchy on my back of thighs & lower back. Will update after I begin to walk today????

This is my first morning home. I had surgery Wednesday morning. I'm on Percocet every four hours. If I don't take it right away the pain is pretty bad. I'm passing gnarly gas but no BM yet. How is everyone else going this morning?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
