So I am feeling so discouraged! I've only lost 13lbs since surgery and haven't lost a single pound in 6 days; I dont know what I am doing wrong... I dont think this is normal. I guess because when I read others storys they all seem to say they loose about 30lbs in the first month, and I am trying to figure out why my weight loss has stopped so soon. Anyone else with this problem or have any advice? Hope you ladies are all doing well. Thanks Day of surgery weight 283.9 todays weight 270.9

Honestly im not sure... i tried to walk it out, but ended up feeling really sick. Still trying to stay hydrated drinking crystal light and carnation drink mix. Water tends to make me feel like I am getting heart burn.

Started off as a good day...but having lots of back pain... anyone else have this?

Hi MizzouGirl- I had my surgery on May 30th Just got home last night from the hospital! My surgery went well, Doc said I was able to get my liver small enough for him to work around everything. Ended up having to stay an additional day in the hospital because I wasn't hydrated enough; first night home and I am a bit sore, especially when I stand, or try sleeping on my side! I hear you clear when you say sleeping is not fun when its on your back. I to am a stomach or side sleeper. I have found the pillow wedge helpful but it doesn't do justice. Still trying to see what I can keep down, with out it making me nauseous. I have found I am a big fan of crystal light and Chick-fil-a Soup (drained of course, the broth to it is good) Just trying to take it one step at a time. Wish I wasn't so light headed all the time. I know this should go away when I can actually get more fluids in. Doc says I can get my staples taken out on Thursday, thats something to look forward to! Just glad to see there is another sleever so close to my date that I can try to compair storys with; as far as loosing weight, I am up 3 pounds since surgery... hoping that will turn around quickly. I would love to see a change on the scale, cause I'll tell you, it sure as heck through me off when I weighed in last night. Hope all is well- Mrs26
