Wow, reading your recollection of your surgery brought tears to my eyes. Same EXACT thing happened to me. It's kinda nice to know that I'm not alone. Thanks for posting. Good luck
The same thing happened to me in March!!! My large intestine was never attached to my abdominal wall on my right side so they had to remove 1/3 of it. Except your incisions are better looking than mine. I had to get vut right down the middle of my a…

THANKFUL to be home from the hospital;)
So.....
I've had a rough week. Monday night I woke up at about 10pm with terrible pain in my abdomen.

I was in horrible, screaming pain by this point.
The doctors couldn't tell what was wrong with me at first. They thought that maybe one of my ovaries was twisted, as apparently this is a "normal" thing for female bodybuild… Continue

- That's a huge help--you really do find so many conflicting views. I'm always weary to try something unless there are facts to back it up, too! Well I'm 8wks out and glad to keep the shakes in!

- Hey Melissa, in your post about curbing sugar cravings, you mentioned taking protein powder out of your diet 8 wks out--can you tell me your reasoning behind it? I am playing with my diet a little differently for Team Universe coming up, and could use a couple tips:)
