Thanks! Can you see the picture I posted? I'm not sure if it's showing up.

137lbs lost. 9 months post op!

What was your starting weight if you don't mind me asking? Congrats to you!

I developed an ulcer on my incision line after surgery, about 3 weeks after surgery. It was extremely painful and I was in regret mode for a long time!! It took many weeks to heal and lots of medication but it's better now. Hang in there!

Found out Wednesday I developed an ulcer on my incision line! No wonder I have been in pain! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I could drink milk just fine before so this has come as such a shock to me. And is extremely painful. I'm going to try lactose free milk tomorrow and pray that works! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the replies! I'm going to call me dr on Monday. Did y'all have painful stomach cramps along with the chronic diarrhea? I'm so miserable Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm 4 1/2 weeks out from surgery and my stomach hurts all the time. No matter what I eat, it starts hurting and I end up in the bathroom all day. Most people have issues with constipation but no me!! It's the opposite. I'm drinking plain Water and getting my Protein in. I'm not eating sugars or fatty food. Someone please help! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I made my husband hide the scales for a while. Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I hit a stall at 3 weeks post op and I've been at this stall for a week and a half now! I'm eating my Protein and drinking tons of Water like the Dr said and I even upped my walking time. When I weigh, the scale will go down a pound and then up a pound. I just don't get what I'm doing wrong. Why am I not losing weight? It's so depressing.

I had my bypass Nov 7th and I have hit a stall. It's so depressing because I'm doing all the same things I did at the beginning and nothing is happening I have heard this happens to everyone but I truly hope it passes soon! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the encouragement and nice words. I'm not trying to compare myself to others, I just wanted to make sure I'm doing what I'm supposed to and staying on the "average" track. I'm still learning how to eat and drink after surgery so I just wanted to get other people opinions on how the weight will far off. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am now two weeks post op and I have lost 18lbs so far. Is that a good amount or should I be losing more, faster??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How often does everyone eat? Example- every 2 hours, 3 hours? I'm trying to figure out how to eat with this new stomach. Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
