I am down 12.8 pounds, went for first post op appt today, so that is good...HOWEVER I FELL TERRIBLE! So tired and sore and waaaaah! I am bummed, because I thought I would just bounce right out of bed after this!

Is this normal? Also, I have a hematoma under one of my incisions--he siad it will open and drain--can it get ANY grosser?

Ugh. Discouraged and lacking ANY energy.

WAH

Hi Kimberly! I am glad you are bouncing back so fast. It sounds like you are doing awsome! Keep us posted.

If your pants are baggy, then you're getting "a disappearing butt". You'll be needing new, smaller underwear soon. That's a sure sign!

Glad you're on the mend. It is exillerating to shrink isn't it!

Thank goodness you are finally on the mend!!

Aren't these gross episodes such amazing memories??? I get creeped out, but also revisit those memories in awe... lol

Hi Kimber-lilly,

Glad to hear you are feeling better and things are getting back to normal. New Hope is right. The baggy underwear will be the next to go. Congratulations on the terrific weight loss.

Hiya Kimberly!

Glad to hear that you are all drained and feeling better! Good luck with your weigh-in with Dr. Kemmerling!

Glad you are doing better! Here's hoping your panties get saggy real soon!!!

Really???? Awesome! Thank goodness I'm stocked up on popcorn! I have a big screen T.V.... it's going to be family video night!

Seriously... if you suddenly find yourself busting out in tears for no apparent reason.... that's pretty normal too!

(((hugs)))

Oh good Darcy I have done that a few times already, and wondered what the heck was wrong with me....feeling crappy, have a cry!! Usually makes me feel better!! LOL

remember it could always be worse.....it could be raining!

Katie, your body is going through a lot of changes right now. The weight and hormones are shfting on you. And you're still getting over the effects of surgery and anesthesia. It's o.k. to have a "pity party" as long as it doesn't last. Sometimes a good cry is all you need to get it out of your system. You're doing fine!
