well its been awhile since i posted as i have not had much energy to come on here.I am still struggling with unexplained stomach pain.I had a Ct scan done again in november and they can see anything wrong.i am still heavily medicated for pain.my dr is at a loss as to what is going on.i am still waiting to get into specialist.Things are not getting better in fact if im brutally honest they are getting worse.I am losing weight again as i can no longer tolerate solid foods.right now i am living on protien shakes,popsicles and greek yougurt.whenever i try solid foods i am in horrible pain.This has just started over the weekend and i have not told my dr yet.I am sleeping alot and relying on pain meds.i am taking extra stool softners to help with all the pain meds im on.

well thats all for now I hope everyone is doing well on here.Sorry to be such a downer but this is a safe place for me to be honest about whats going on with me

So there have been many surgeries lately,for both plastics and bariatrics.How is everyone doing post op?

No before and after photos for me. I believe I can already see/feel weight loss. Will do a weigh in here in Edmonton before I leave. That will confirm or deny any weight loss since my pre op weigh in. Am feeling a little tired today as I stayed up yesterday and chatted in the hotel bar. I have to do a follow up INR test here this AM then if I'm up for it, I'll do a little sight seeing. But its been really cold here - warming up today:  minus 18 with the windchill. I hear its been very cold in Winnipeg - you received the same weather Edmonton had.

Congrats mike.im so glad that it finally happened for you .you will do great .canr wait to see your progress.did you take before pictures
