Beth   I agree with the Ladies    Take a deep breath and slow down.    Listen to your doctors and follow up .    Make sure all your doctors get you test results. Since you are pregnant    I always give everyone a copy.   Did I understand right you are now pregnant? If so make sure primary is talking to the OBGYN.

Sorry you are not feeling well.     Take care sweety   

Wow Penny    Thank you for the information.  Good Luck with you dispute!

He was my surgeon and did an awesome job with my extended tummy tuck. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Welcome, Jackie. At the Nut appt she will go over with you what you can expect from your after surgery to your new lifelong food changes that you will be making. The psyc eval basicly wants to determine that you are educated in your decision, a non-drinker, can follow the life-long quidelines of a bypass surgery patient(take your vitamins, eat approproate foods,ect.) and are dedicated to the weightloss. It's tough to change the food obsession. A few people unfortunately replace their obsesssion with bad habits, others with good hobbies.You will feel more like exercising as you start to loose weight and it helps to focus on good healhy foods rather than fatty, high calorie foods. As far as being out of work goes, I've seen people on here talk about going to work after a week.My personal experience was such that I would not have been able to work comfortably for 5 weeks. So  it all depends on complicatons and plain just how you feel. I hope your experience is a joyous one and the best  advice I can give you is LEARN,LEARN,LEARN! The more you know about what you are about to experience will give you much more confidence and success in your weight loss journey.

Thank you for your input.  Good Luck with your arms in August.
