I' date='too, have chronic pain issues, along with migraine related vertigo. I just got back from the er because of incredible , searing ear pain related to my trigeminal nerve...kept me up all night until I just couldnt take it anymore. Sometimes I just don't even care about my weight loss with all the other crap I've got going on. But, on the bright side, I started a new job training last night and could sit for four hours without too much pain. At least it was manageable. Never could have done that six months ago. Dori, I hope your surgery goes really well. Living in pain is hard. Keep your chin up![/quote']

Sorry you are still having problems with your nerves yet. I really hope they can find something that makes it better. I understand that sometimes you dont care about loss. I honestly feel the same way. I just want my back to feel better. To people that dont deal with stupid chronic pain, it must seems weird but feeling normal is really all I want. Sure I like the loss and how itakes me feel but my primary goal is to be pain free and get back to the fun loving, fun having person I used to be! Feel better soon my friend!♥

Today i am 5 months out. And this is how i've changed. It is mind-boggling' date=' truly. Man, I've cried so much today!

Wow look at you! What an amazing transformation! You look absolutely wonderful! Congrats to you in your success! Yayyyyy!!!!!

My husband, being the wonderful man he is, shared his cold, sore throat and all. Isnt he great! ;) Feeling like I got hit by a bus today. Sitting here with the chills and yet have an ice pack on my back. I am stinkin mess today. Weight was down a pound today though, 237. Saw a friend yesterday and he said "omg are you looking good, real good!" Yeah that made my day! ;)

We are just south of Denver' date=' at Fort Carson. The weather here has been on the fritz lately! Snow is so unpredictable in December, they are predicting lots of it this year.[/quote']

Yay!! Finally maybe a soul I will know! I'm terrified. Snow..I've never had to drive in it. I'm not sure how well this will go. Have a feeling will have alot of home bound days. ESP pregnant where I know nobody

Tomorrow I have my "6 month" post op appointment with the surgeon. It is actually a week and a half early but should be pretty good anyway! I found the picture of me eating out the day before the liquid fast so a few days before surgery and the other is last week! It is terrible to see how I truly was and how I didn't realize that was me when I had the extra weight!

Wow do you look awesome!! Great job! I didnt realize I had gotten so big until I saw my side by side pictures! Im so thankful for this surgery and the chance to change my life! Best of luck on hour appointment. Cant wait for mine as I havent had any bloodwork done since surgery and am so curious to see where I am at. I think im taking all the right stuff but that is the only area of this post op stuff where im unsure.

Took a 5 hour nap today! Wasn't expecting that at all and I dont feel any better either! :( of course there is a big party for a good friend at my neighbors house on Saturday! Wanna go and see some old friends. Gotta get better by then!
