Topic: RE: G Tube?
I have to feed myself through the G-Tube if I can't get my Protein in otherwise. I had a drain at the hospital too which they pulled before I left. This G-Tube is always hurting and very UNCOMFORTABLE !! Starting to make me depress !!

Bri,
No no.... Don't give up !!! Never give up !!! I know it sucks but don't give up on a future of a healthier you. I started on this journey in May of 2008, having to go through the 6 month required program first and then having to wait even longer for the appointment with the surgeon (which they don't let you make until your in your fifth month of the program) and then, they are so backed up on surgery dates, it took 2 more months of waiting for my surgery day to arrive (which is 1-23-09). I know it's frustrating, but please don't give up !!

Kim,
Welcome home!
Glad all went well! Since mine on Monday I am amazed at how well I feel! If I had to leave the house today I actually would feel like it. Today is the first day that I feel like eating. I am looking forward to Monday when I can move to sof/puree stage. I love eggs and I hope my new pouch does too.
I have been waiting for my period to start because it seems to be so common. Hopefully I am an acception and it will be the end of my periods forever! I could be the one who stops menstrating after WLS! Yeah!
I am finding it hard to get all the liquid in. I am not really forcing it, just constantly sipping.
Keep up the good work!
Talk to ya soon!
Lisa

i went for my final weigh in and only lost 6 lbs out of the 20 my doc wanted me to lose in 2 weeks and so they have cancelled my surgery jan 19 and rescheduled me for feb 11.which means i am to stay on the liquid diet even longer! i am so upset,discouraged and angry all at the same time, i have worked hard to get to this point only to have 3 more weeks added to my anticipation? at this point i feel like giving up....
Best of Luck,Bri
