I am finding signs of knee and elbow bones. My wrists are getting thinner too. When I get on a bike, it feels like the entire seat is going UP my ass! I can't wait to feel like I am just sitting on something instead of becoming an imtimate part with it. LOL, Teresa

Well, I don't think that my husband has anything to worry about for a very long time!

My husband says having sex with a skinny woman is like making love to a bag of antlers.

Teresa, I'm feelin' ya! Everything used to just sink into the fat. I used to stand up and my butt would get stuck in my lawn chair and the chair would come up with me. Now I don't need to brace my hands on the chair to keep it on the ground when I stand up.

Has anyone noticed hip pain after getting up. I think I must of carried my weight forward, so now that I have lost 98#'s when I stand up I feel like I have to lean forward a little because it hurts in my hip joint. I am going to have to start a stretching rountine to stretch out all those shortened tendons. Let me know if anyone else has had that experience. Tammy

Tammy, I haven't noticed any pains related to weight loss (unless you count the pain I have had after exercising). But I had an issue with the way my sense of balance changed, for a while. I had to re-orient myself going down stairs, and moderate the energy I use to get out of chairs. I was shooting across the room! It's sort of like a reversal of the changes we go through during pregnancy. I got really clumsy there for a while! :D

Great Job on the 98 LBS lost Tammy!!! When did you get banded? I didn't see your stats. I find my knee is a bit sore some days after 60 lbs lost but think it is probably just a remnant of the heavier days. My knee never hurt frequently before but once in awhile it would have really painful episodes. Hope you get all straightened out. Teresa

Hi,

I was banded on 2/3/04, I did lose 40

3's before my banding thou. Two days after my banding I blew my knee out, I didn't realize it due to the pain meds from surgery. I had to have knee surgery and was out of work just about 3 months. Thank you and how are you doing? I have been stuck here and I am fighting "head hunger", need to get my but in gear and start concentrating on good choices. Tammy

My head hunger is in full swing and is trying to convince me that I don't have a band. Need to find those tiny bites and slow chewing cuz I'm not sure where it went. Gaining.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
