Post Op March 2014

I just had my surgery on the 10th and I feel so full under my ribs when I drink, is this normal or gas? I hope we March peeps and other veterans can support each other. This app is a Godsend!

      So something kind of amazing happened today. I asked for 4 weeks off work. My doctors office said start with 4, and we could ask for more if I needed it. MetLife is notorious for only approving 4 week

      *A non-scale victory shout out* I was walking through my house yesterday in front of my family, with my hands full and my pants fell to my ankles!!!!!! I was so happy/excited I couldn't be embarrassed

    Before and After - surgery 3/18. Had my 3 month with my pc today. All vitamins levels are excellent, blood pressure was 120/70 and my A1C is 5.6. I'm down 50 lbs and loving life. By far the best thing I've ever done for myself in a long time.

    Mine was thin to begin with as well. Hopefully the loss will be short lived for both of us. Congrats on your success!
