So excited and nervous! Is anyone else having surgery on my date? I would like us all in one thread to give our own experiences. It'll be great! We will all be in pain at the same time. [emoji1]

The scales are seductive, huh? I know what you're talking about.

how is everyone feeling?...im still not able 2 really eat, have been drinking broth and sugar free popsicles, been getting in about 32 oz water, feeling better just get tired and worn out pretty fast.

Do you guys know if it's okay to take benadryl? I broke out in hives and my stupid doctor never responds quick..

Call a pharmacist. What are the hives from?

Are you a month out? Have you talked to your Dr about not being able to eat. You need fluids and protein.

I asked a pharmacist at Target and he looked at me like, I don't know... I just thought... well you're the one with the license. Geez...

I think it's from the new medication the doctor put me on. That's when they started... but i just brushed it off like maybe it was something that bit me. Then the next morning i had more.. so bad that i thought maybe i had lice.. i don't know what to do.. i put cortizone but I'm getting new ones.

@ I took Benadryl for mine when I had them randomly break out I chose the children's chewable was easier and didn't make me fall asleep but It was safe for me two days post op I'm sure now wouldn't be an issue

Ugh! I had Allegra in my medicine cabinet too!

Sometimes I'm kind of scared how much I can eat. When I read that some people who're months out can only eat like "oh, two spoons" or something "the size of a thumb" I wonder if I'm some kind of freak. Or they're kind of exaggerating...

Summerset I have good and bad days.. This past week I haven't really been able to manage much, for my lunch I had 4 teaspoons of salmon and was full. But other days I can eat a whole mini fillet. It just depends.. Don't judge yourself on other people's experiences. Everybody's journey is different!

Yes, I know. *sigh*

In the hospital they said the same. Everyone's different. Just makes me kind of anxious.

I'd give you a big ole hug right now if I could! People say wls is the easy way out.. They couldn't be further from the truth!
