Hi all! I realise this is an American forum but I've not been able to find such an informative and friendly one in the UK so far so hope you don't mind having me here! I started my weightloss journey on Tuesday 12th April 2016, where I began my liver reducing diet pre-op. I was 20st 9lbs, 289lbs. On the day of surgery, Tuesday 26th April 2016 I weighed 20st 1lb, and now 8 days post-op I weigh 19st 9lbs so 14lbs lost so far. I hope to use this thread as a bit of a diary and would love any input and replies! Many thanks

I'm 8 days post-op and yep I get them a lot! I've recognised it's when I've slightly overdone it and am full but my god it's painful when my insides are still so tender! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was told the stitches would dissolve in 7-10 days and to take off the dressings after 7 days, however it's now been 7 days and I had a peak and incisions aren't closed over fully so I've changed them and will keep them on a few days more as I don't want clothes or my bra rubbing the wounds Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
