    How can you go through all of this, actually let someone cut your body open and then the first two weeks not have the willpower to stick to your diet? Maybe you should have got RNY....
    Not trying to be mean but you should have found the willpower before you got the surgery IMO...

    Sorry if my post came across as mean. I understand your frustration and I know no one is perfect (myself included). Ultimately I was upset by one part of his/her post. I wasn't following my diet

    My thing is, why do all of this and not stick to what they tell you eat to the T for the first 2 weeks? I know its hard but I think anyone that is willing to do this to themselves should be able to power through 2 weeks of hard dieting, if you can't, you werent ready for this. 2 years....now that is a different story and I am much more inclined to be sympathetic with someone losing focus down the line....

    Sorry if it came across as mean.

    It is normal to gain a huge amount of weight after surgery 7-12 pounds via fluids. Ultimately they usually all exit the body in 4-7 days.
