Hey Stef, big girl panties for a little while. Every feeling is new isn't it. Tomorrow is 14 days out for me and every day something new happens. HUGS you have your battle scar started, be so so proud of yourself.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hey, thanks everyone. It's 4 days post op today and everyday I am getting a little better. Had to sleep in a chair for the past few nights because lying down was making me feel sick and making the wind worse. How long dies the wind and the bloatedness last for??? Anyway generally better. Can't wait till I see the benefits of all this on the scales!!

Wow day 4 eh?? That is great. I didn't have any trouble with wind so i can't help you there. Maybe you can walk it off. So glad to hear you are doing well. The scale will not disappoint you! Keep up the good work.

Hey everybody. When do you start to feel you are losing weight? I feel all bloated and swollen and not feeling any benefits yet. Think I'm too eager. Lol.
Stef.

Im sure you are bloated and swollen and its normal. Everyone's different, but I started feeling a difference right about week three. I had lost 20 lbs up to that point and didnt feel any different, didnt see anything different in the mirror...but when I put on an old faithful pair of jeans, they were so loose I thought I forgot to button them.

Hi everyone, just a quick update! For the past couple weeks really not been able to keep a lot down, only liquids. Went to see my doctor and apparently the opening to my pouch had over-heeled so on monday i had to go and have an endoscopy and had the opening stretched! Feel loads better now. Back to work tomorrow. Tried on my uniform a couple of days a go and my uniform is hanging off me whoop!! Just hoping i can lose what i would like by June when it is my birthday!
Hope everyone else is still doing really well

Sorry about the stricture, but darn - look at you already 2/3 of the way to your goal!!! That's GREAT! AND - you hit the one hundreds - you're in One-derland! . That's fantastic - keep it up - you'll be at your goal weight in no time!
