Up and down like a snail is a good analogy. I was told to drink 3 Protein Drinks a day once I get home. I do what I can. I feel like if I don't I'm only starving myself and that's no good. I don't know if you're going through this but my incisions do not like to have clothes on them. Is that weird? I can have a pillow up against it, but that's it, so that's something at least. Ice helps but after a while drives me nuts. Other than that I feel great. Beatrice (what I call my new tool) hasn't been giving me too much hassle, so that's a plus. I'm so glad I did this.

No cause I always wear a binder.

They didn’t give you something to take when you left the hospital. My Dr gave me a script just in case.

I was nauseous the one time. That was the day after surgery and I was trying to drink too much too fast. I slowed down and so far it's all good.

I have been taking Zicam swabs. Did you have a cough? I am perfectly fine besides this darn cough! No fever or anything. I'm determined to kick this by Thursday. My insurance changes Jan 1st so I am terrified of being rescheduled! I had a baby this year so I've reached my deductible and max out of pocket for the year.. Been drinking a ton of broth, sitting in the steamy shower, Benadryl, sudafed, inhaling essential oils the whole 9! Ughughugh!


Surgery Date: 11/16/17
HW- 416 (Sept. 2014)
CW- 353.4
SW-?????
GW- 160


Feel better, I hope it works out for you. Had mine today. I also had a baby this year!

Yeah they did. I use it sometimes I'd just like to know what's causing it.

Hey LylaLovesCoffee what is a binder?


Hi! I can answer this because I love mine! A binder is like a Velcro wrap they provide post op to kinda keep your stomach and everything tight. Moving around is painful at times so the binder keeps everything in place. I literally wear mine 24/7, even to sleep. Layla - did I miss anything?

      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?
