Nope. "It's normal but you can try these patches". For $176. Wah wah wah.

Gee thanks for nothing, huh? That sucks. I'm sorry. My biggest issue is a stitch sticking out. I still haven't contacted my doc but I need to. It's starting to itch and scabs over but I itch it and pick the scab because I'm itching it.

Yeah. I went to walgreens and only got 2 Patches for $23. They are kinda big so I could probably cut em in half or even quarters. But yeah. Damn!

I've heard of that! I feel like I've read that they just need to work en self out?? They hurt? That'd freak me out. Haha

Well mine doesn't hurt. So I have that going for me. Hopefully those patches work out for you. At least they let you buy a few for less than a million dollars to try.

Ok. So I've had a lidoderm patch on for about 2.5 hours. I think they might actually work. So far I've been able to get up off the couch with almost no pain! The first time since surgery. These things might be worth $176. Haha.

Disregard my pity party earlier. :)

Yes. I'm anxious to go to bed to see if I can get more than one hour of sleep at a time.

I'm so happy. I can leave it on for 12 hours and then have to wait another 12 hours to put another one on. It'll be interesting to see how the 12 hours between will go.

Anyone step on the scale get an amazing # then get off & back on again and the great # magically disappears.

I never get on the scale more than once. My scale matches my PCP's scale perfectly and never thought about it. Lol

I took 3 TBS this morning. Today is day 3 without going and I've felt like I needed to go all day yesterday. What's that saying? There I sat all broken hearted, needed to poop but only farted...

Bahahahaha. Yes! Every time. Every time I think I gotta go, it's just farts. Heh. I was going to take some more yesterday, but I have class all day today. No class tomorrow, so I'll take some later today. And maybe a dulcolax. Haha.

      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?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
