  1. You are barely three weeks..11 lbs is good! At least you have not gained 11lbs. Everyone is different and everyone's body loses weight at a different pace. Don't give up! Just becuz you're not losing lbs doesn't mean you're not losing inches ! Keep your head high. And think positive. You'll get there. •Highest Weight - 240 •Surgery Weight 8/3 -230 •Weight 8/31 -203 • Weight 9/30 -186 •Current Weight 11/15 -168

  6. So I have NEVER had a problem with heartburn before my surgery. I finished the heartburn pills my surgeon prescribed me and didn't think I'd need them after they were finished so I haven't gotten a refill yet. Since I've stopped taking them I've been getting heartburn like crazy. Will this ever stop?? or do I have to take those pills forever. (which is fine whatever will keep ir away!!)I even get it when I drink Water. I haven't felt normal since getting heartburn. :/ also why does this happen? Heartburn that is.
