  1. I lost 14 pounds in the first 14 days now on my third week I gained 3 pounds and i am not eating or drinking anything wrong what is going on. Grrrrrrrrrr
  2. I wished I would've had a claw long gripping tool. I ended up using kitchen tongs when I dropped something. As no bending over. I needed more help than I thought. The gas pain after surgery hurts way more than the incisions. I thought I was going to die. But it goes away by day 3 or so the thing that surprised me. Was when I woke up from surgery. I guess I had expected it would be rough to swallow. I felt the exact same as before surgery. Besides hurting. And when I drank. It isn't hurt or anything. It was weird. Good luck Tom
  3. Holy cow. Sweet can I ask your weight. 20 seams c r a z y
  4. well im on day 16 , and i am finally feeling 100% , not as tired , i can go do things..etc

  7. I gained ten from surgery. All fluid. I am 14 days and down 14. The ten came off in like 3 days then lost the 14
  8. I bought the powdered pb2 peanut butter. And mix two tbs in my premier protein choc shake. Or a half small banana puréed in. Tastes good
  9. Trust me. I thought What the hell have I done lol but so much better. Plus I'm down 12 in 13 days
  10. It has to work its way out. I thought my chest was going to explode
  11. I'm on day 13. I thought I was going to die the first few days. I had no idea the gas would hurt so bad. It does get better. A few more days. You'll start to feel much better. And no sleep for me either
  12. I am day 13 since surgery. Not hungry at all. Amazed at that. We're you hungry. And iif you weren't. Did that feeling last. I'm hoping this is going to always feel this way
  13. I don't see him till 5 weeks out. He will prob say ok to swim then
  14. I'm an open book , everyone knows and I've had zero negative support. I'm not going to lie and make up a magic diet I've been on ..
  15. The incisions didn't hurt. The gas pains after does. So try to walk that all out. I was surprised at the pain from gas.
  16. Does anybody know how long till you can go in a pool after surgery?
  17. It took me 5 weeks from first visit till surgery. I self paid and was lucky to get all preop apts done quick
  18. Yes that's me. It was the gas pains. They were awful. I've never hurt like that , landerholm did my surgery. He was awesome. I'm doing good. Down 12 since that day. Stayed the same the last couple days. I'm just tired now. Having two protein shakes and a tiny bit of food takes a whole day to get down. How are you doing ?
  19. Um, I think that was me crying out in surgery center on the 21st. I was in the middle room and left first at 5am
  20. I would never do hcg again. I did it a year ago. Drops. Ended up in hospital with a lung inflammation. Went off hcg. Tried it again a month later. And ended up in hospital again
