Thanks all, lol im not worried about it , I like it lol but he thinks its to much to fast...anyways i have to go in and get my drain out tommorow anyways and he can ask the doc to make himself feel better......thanks again...

weight at surgery was 228 down to 221 now...bmi was 40.7

im 6 days out of surgery and lost 8.6 pounds so far.....is that a good number? what have u lost per week? im just trying to gage this,lol my hubby thinks im loosing to fast? i lost most of it in the last 4 days..Thanks

Hey we are loosing at the same rate....6 days out here...good for us!

if u cant see the pic, they are on my page.....having hard time with this lol

yes thank you all worked out in the end.......sofar no pains at all, no gas pains , eating and drinking like i did before, but i get hiccupps that can hurt lol

no , no pain from the incisions or the drain....a little discomfort in the stomach that is all....like im always full even when i hadnt eaten anything yet...

pics taken 2 days after surgery, drain will come out on aug 10th.....feeling great......

well it depends on what ur protocol says and how heavy and how fatty ur liver is...!!! u need to shrink ur liver and liquid diet is the way to do that......i have heard of surgeons who after they open u up and see that ur liver has not shrunk, will not continue the surgery if ur liver is still too fatty....do u really want to take that chance? in the early days of my diet i ate tomato soup (no chunks) for dinner and added a few spoon full of french fried onions , the ones u put on thanks giving green bean casserole, it helped a lot to fool my mind into thinking i ate a meal.....but i only did that twice early one.....i left off the onions later..... people here have different diets, some allow some foods and others none.....mine only allowed protein shakes, water and broth and i got permission for the tomato soup thinned with water.....u can not go by other people's diets......
