I'm down 36lbs since surgery on 8/15

I lost 30lbs in my first 14 days and stalled until this past Wednesday (2wks). And I go to the gym everyday and swim everyday. Needless to say, I was about ready to break the scale....lol. now I am down another 2lbs. So 32 altogether.

For some reason I'm scared to sleep on my stomach. Were you scared the first time you did?

Is anyone a stomach sleeper? If so are you back to sleeping on your stomach and if so how long did it take you to be able to sleep on your stomach

It took me 4wks to feel 100% and be able to go back to the gym.

Yeah. I lost 30lbs in 14days. It was ruff but I'm doing a lot better now.

I had the runs 3x a day for the first 2wks. Then constipation for 10day after being switched to stage 3. Now I am pretty regular.

I finally got back to the gym today. I only did 20mins on the elliptical because I didn't know how my body would react and I didn't want to over do it. It felt good. Then I did 20laps in the pool. I am really amazed at how much more energy I have. Normally after I get home from dropping my kids off at school I go back to sleep cause I'm so tired but lately I'm wide awake.

Thanks I will try that. My RN suggested the tea smooth move so I'm going to try that tonight.

Has anyone had a really hard first 2-3wks. I have been so miserable. The first 2wks I had the runs 3x a day. Then since my doc switched me to stage 3 I haven't had a BM in 8 days. My doc doesn't want me to take anything right now but I'm so uncomfortable. I did take gasx but it doesn't seem to be helping.
