Tomorrow has been one year since my surgery. I have lost 70 pounds. I don't regret a thing.
-
I had surgery Oct 22 and I'm down 46lbs. I went about a month and didn't lose then all of a sudden I dropped 7lbs in a week.
-
I am a nurse and my doctor said I had to be off 6 weeks. I don't believe 2 weeks will be enough. The fatigue is the bad part.
-
It will take about 2 weeks of a stand still. Then you will start losing again. I have lost every day since. I try to eat 1000-1100 calories a day.
-
Yes I gained 2 lbs but they told me that was expected and it would take a couple weeks for my body to adjust and they were right.
-
It took 2weeks after I started to eat mushies for me to start losing again.
-
I love mfp. It also links with my pedometer.
-
Finally started to lose again after a 2week stand still.
-
I vomited a few hours after surgery because of the pain meds. I was concerned but my doctor said if was fine.
-
I'm glad to hear that. I lost 22lbs then when I started to eat full liquids and soft food I gained 1.5 lbs and have stayed there. I am 2 weeks post op tomorrow.
-
Back from post op appointment. Everything looks good. Down 22 lbs in 2 weeks. Can start soft foods now.
-
I was banded yesterday and when I walk it feels like something is pulling where my port is. Just wondering if that is normal?
-
So I'm banded. Up and walked this evening. Only trouble liquid loratab doesn't like me . Puked twice getting iv morphine for now. Pain isn't to bad.

My doctor is making me stay overnight for observation.
