    Hey, ScbBell

    I just had the Surgery on the 17th of April...
    It has been tough! Because, I really don't get
    hungry. I can go almost half a day before I
    even want anything to eat.

    Plus, it seem in this early stage in the process
    I can't seem to like anything no more. The liquid
    diet has been a rask, I can't wait ti gain my taste
    for food back?
    KEEP IN TOUCH...

  2. Hey Lady~ It seems like we have the same doctor for our surgery. My first appointment w/ Dr. Nicholson is the 20th. What are your opionions of him? Ive heard some awesome things about him.
  3. I feel the same way. I told my husband I can not wait for the survey to come in the mail because the care I recived there was better than at any other hospital.

    Yes, I went to Forest Park; excellent facility, staff. Nursing staff was great (from PCTs to charge nurses), hospital generalist, pre-op, anesthesiology, post-op...I plan to write a letter soon to commend them all.

    I see your surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. I'll have you in my prayers for a successful surgery and a very easy recovery. You're right though. This is a very hard and brave path to health. Dr. Nick did my surgery on 11/1/11 and although I have had my own challenges, I have never regretted my decision once. I am 62 days out and I feel great. I am down from a size 18W to a regular 12/14 and still losing. I'm very sure you'll be as happy as I am. Try not to get discouraged, don't rush anything. Stay in touch. This is an awesome group whose encouragement has made the difference in my recovery.

  8. Hi I am in this forum so I don't have to be on this Journey alone. I don't believe people who are not thinking bout WLS or had WLS surgery understand that this is a hard way to lose weight. Surgery is very hard on the body and I commend everyone who is able to go trough with the process.

Hi My surgery went well without any complications. The complications came after the surgery when my blood pressure would not go down. I have no pain so I really don't need pain meds. However, I have this cough and everytime I cough my left side hurts. Is this Normal? I am drinking every 15 minutes and sometimes that is hard to do because I get really full. Is there any way to make sure I get enough protein?
