I had surgery on July 9th & to date, I've only lost 24lbs since surgery, 37lbs pre surgery diet. i really feel like I should've lost a lot more. In the last two weeks, I've only lost like 2 lbs. it's so frustrating!! I drink decent amts of water & protein. I don't get it. I'm eating like 1/3 or 1/4 of the calories I did before surgery....?!? I'm on soft foods now & I also have to take nausea medicine with every meal, unless its liquid or i get so sick to my stomach. So weird! It's definitely taking a whole lot of adjusting to my new life style.

I was complete nerves right up to the time the wheeled me back. They gave me a sedative & that's all I remember. I remember waking up in recovery with the nurse showing my my incisions. Everything went great. Recover has be super fast & I'm enjoying my new life. You ladies will do great!! Be blessed

Hi everyone, I had surgery in the 9th & recovery has been steady until yesterday when I felt a pain in my stomach. Hard to explain, but it feels like its at the top of my skin, not actually in my stomach. It's sensitive to the touch, too. Has anyone else experienced anything like this??

Good tips guys. I think I'll kinda go back to basics & start weighing food & logging. I don't want to over eat. Thank youI'm 5 days post op & I don't want to get sick by Eating too much. I feel like I don't know when enough is enough....like I don't quite trust myself to know when I'm full. I don't want to overdo it basically. I'm conscious of every bite, or drink should I say, & I feel the liquid going down. Just nervous about being sick. Any tips???Mine was the 9th too!! How are you feeling?? I'm up & about but I wish I was more healed than I am.I had 5 incisions, but I also had a hernia. Tuesday will be a week for me post OP.....just have your surgeon take a look. You def want them to heal right ????....&& I'm in a lot of pain. I can hardly do anything but sleep!! Please tell me it gets easier!!
