That mite be tmi.lol make sure to walk walk and walk some more my gas pain went away because I walked alot in the hospital. I'm sore but not in alot of pain still nausea but I take meds before trying to drink anything other than water. Make sure to do the breathing exercises the last thing anyone wants it chest pains from pneumonia. All this is temporary so keep your heads up and everything will subside eventually. Go luck guys! If any wants prayers let me know. Thank to everyone who prayed for me. :)

Hey chavezmommy I doing great and lot of stalls. Ups and downs but no real set backs or compilations. I'm 106lbs down and stalling again. Best thing I've ever done.

Oh my Lord 106 lbs!!!! You rock!!!!!!!

This is so inspiring! I was just getting a little down on myself today, thinking why do I have to cut away 80% of my stomach to control my weight/health. How I've failed at this weight loss thing so many times. I'm also thinking what if I die - should I do this?! I'm getting scared!

But the odds are on my side and I know in the long run it will be worth it! Deep breaths!

Most of us have those same thoughts. And honestly I still worry about if I'm going to lose more if this stall is it for me. I really didn't tell people I was having surgery because I was ashamed I couldn't lose the weight myself. But one thing I can say is better now than never. Who cares how you lose it or how you gained it as long as you do your best moving forward.

I may also be in the hospital on my birthday this year. Lol. Happy Birthday!
