Hope everyone is ok. I am almost 8 weeks post op omg it's crazy to think I'm this far out. I have my dr apt on the 4th and can't wait. Although I've hit a stall... On August 6 my surgery day I weighed 302lbs on my 2 wk apt I was at 286 as of today I am 272lbs. That's only 14lbs in 6weeks in kinda dissappointed but I'm also kinda happy cause it's weight I will never see again. I carried my niece up my stairs she weighs 19lbs and i cannot believe I carried that much extra on my body before!! Now all my stays as of today are when I started my journey in August 2012 I weight 332lbs! When I got my first weight in with dr at my 2 week pre op tests I weighed 312lbs' date=' and as of today I weigh 272lbs! I'm so happy total loss is 60lbs! Gone forever and since surgery 8 weeks ago I weighed 302lbs and that's a total of 30lbs. awesome! How is everyone else progress.[/quote']

My surgery was Aug 20...I weighed 305 day of today I'm 274...I haven't lost anything in 2 weeks so far..I've read its a normal stall...I have been feeling pretty good but still not getting all my fluids in...:/

How much weight has everyone lost since surgery?

Hey vicki..

I saw dr they did blood work for platelets to chk for infection..but they said if it continues and I can't hold liquids/food down then I need an egd to see if its a stricture..he also said in my case its not gas causing it

I'm going to drs today I hope its nothing serious

Does anyone get pain in upper stomach? (Under chest) I feel very full but its pain..I also have not really ate/drank due to this feeling today

Dr said its not infected its just my bodys way of trying to push out my sutures inside...i didn't have a drain..this incision is the smallest of the 6..its under my chest

No odor..feels like a scab but it def looks like there's puss or something under that otherwise why would it be whiteish...all my incisions feel the same

I was just wondering what u guys thought...I saw my surgeon for 2 week checkup on Wednesday and my incision looked fine...next day I noticed alil bump kindof...does it look infected??

I need help out of bed still....:/

I gained 7 in hospital

8 days post op...still in pain on left side and on bottom of front of stomach...drs are putting me back on pain meds (lortab)...I was having issues with Constipation but that has cleared (now I gotta worry again going back on meds)...I was told its normal for left side pain and the front is rare but it does happen...and its very painful (feels like skin is rubbing/burning)...On a positive note I've lost 12lbs since surgery...

I had surgery aug 20....last bm was the 19th...I'm starting to get uncomfortable...I've been taking Miralax for 3 days still nothing...can I try milk of magnesia today eventhough I took miralax this morning?...any input is appreciated

Thanks for letting me know

I'm 4 days out..are u taking ur meds frequently? I seen a lot of ppl that rarely take their meds due to no pain but I'm honestly taking mine every 4hrs as directed for pain

My pain is mainly left..others hurt if there touched..left side I have 2 incisions then 4 in middle of stomach..how far are you post op?

Thank you so much

What about your back? My back has been killing me also

Thank you..it definatly hurts but glad to hear its normal

I had my surgery on the 20th...was released from hospital yesterday but today I seem to have ALOT of pain on my left side feels like burning/pulling...is this normal? I'm worried I might of pulled something trying to get out of bed
