I had a hernia above my belly button for almost a year and finally got it fixed. The alien is gone yeah but now I can not fit into my size 10 pants. The surgery was on April Th so it's almost been a month and I know swelling can last a while but come on. The scale has gone up by 3 pounds so I have gained a little weight due to inactivity but not a whole size right?
I am stressed out. My husband tells me its fine but it is not I am going in the wrong direction. I was proud of my size 10 and now I am wearing 12's. I don't know if my body is changing and the weight is redistributing itself or what. I had to vent because people who have not had Gastric bypass don't understand what this will do to your mind. I am hoping to get down to a 8 and loose at least 20 more pounds
. I have been saying that for 5 months now
. Any-who thought I would get my friends advise all you people who are reading this. I am still glad I did it. I hated the hernia! I nicknamed it alien because after I would eat it would push out of my belly like in the movie and make me look about 5 months prego. Not that I have anything against the prego look but been there 5 times not trying to go back after I am finally reclaiming my body.
Cheers
Alex
