  7. Hey there, I am 7 days post op and dealing with same but seems to be getting better. I have found that if drink to much or to fast I feel like just been punched in my gut. So using lots of gas pills. But also have found more I walk better it is. Hope this helps . And WTG on weight loss so far
  8. I am 6 days post op and yea the gas all I have found is to walk until you can't walk anymore unfortunately. And wish I had your surgeon cuz I am still on liquids and don't see him until Wednesday for first visit. So tired of liquids. But as I said walking is all that helps me the gas x strips was a waste for me. But have had others say works for them. Good Luck we are all in this together
