    My doctor said sugar free gum was ok. Call your Dr.

    Hi everyone. I had my surgery on 3-11-14 and weight 229 on that morning. I have been stuck on 215 now for the past week. I have read about stalls but so soon? I am doing everything the dr recommends and no weight loss. Is this normal?

    Hi everyone. I am on day 6 of my liquid diet. I was just curious to see how much weight people were able to loose before surgery. Thanks so much.

    Thanks everyone. So far I have followed this 100%. I have to keep big picture in mind. I would rather my body go through detox now rather than after surgery. I can do this. We all can do this.

    I am on day 3 of my pre op liquid diet and I literally feel drained. I am light headed and hungry and weak. Is this normal. No history of diabetes. Any thought would be appreciated.

  9. Pain?

    Boobear7 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hi everyone, I am having surgery on 3/11/14. Just wondering about pain. After surgery will my insides hurt besides the gas pain or will the pain come from the incisions. Or all of the above. Hope this makes sense. . Thanks everyone.

  19. Recovery time...

    Boobear7 replied to Boobear7's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Thanks. I sit down all day and talk to people. I am hoping to only have to take one week off but was wondering how realistic my thoughts were. Is one week realistic?
