I'm in a similar boat, I'm week 6 and lost 12kg to date but have now plateaued... Not losing or gaining for last 2 wks.. I have PCOS also and I'm doing mostly cardio only exercise several times a week for more than an hour... I'm using my calorie pal to record my intake which is between 700-900 calories, most from protein and low fat dairy a day and zero... Zip.. Nothing is moving.. Only had 1 fill so far... Ya think I need more? I know PCOS makes it even harder to shift and I had sever PCOS since I was 13 with over 6 surgery to date related to it.. Lapband was a last resort to control weight and PCOS but I honestly feel ya frustration!!!

I had my surgery 6 weeks ago on a Monday and took 2 full weeks off work in house but was working remotely from home by day two. Im just lucky I could do that so it gave me plenty of time to heal.

Mine had no issues and chewing gum can help with getting the bowels moving as well...

Thanks people, great appreciated! Glad to know I'm not alone!

I hear ya mate! I'm at day 13 post surgery! 1 more day til next stage and trust me it's hard... Got to the point where I would prefer not to eat at all than another shake... So swapped it up for some liquid yoghurts, V8 juices, soups, chewed gum and up & go's! Made the world of difference... Hang in there u will be at day 14 before you know it!

So I only had surgery 1.5 wks ago and I am really struggling to consume all the liquids and allowable diet items in one day... Which in short means I'm only consuming between 250-400 calories a day... Anyone else have this problem also?
