I couldn’t weigh for 12 days as I was recouperating in a hotel. But at the end of that - I was well into losing.
but I think it varies a bit. It will happen!!

I lost 9 lbs on my pre op diet and gained 9 lbs while in the hospital. It took me about 5 days to lose that and by the end of week one I lost 3 more.

I gained 5 in the hospital and have lost three of those.

Try to stay off the scale and don't worry about it. I'd say within 2 weeks

I'm 5 days post op and still in pain; can't sleep on my side cause I feel that is tugging at my stomach. I still have pain on my neck and shoulders... the doctor had me do a cat-scan and everthing showed okay. Anyone else went through this?

I have a desk job he had said 2-3 weeks but at my follow up his staff said I needed a 4th week to get used to eating. I'm bored at home but I will be back at work Monday

I too live in Parkland near PLU.
When I met with Dr. Anwar before surgery, he mentioned that since I sit behind a desk that I could return to work when I am ready as long as I am up every couple of hours and no heavy lifting. I am bored, so I am considering on going back on Wednesday -Fridays for half days and back full time on July 1st. My first follow-up is July 5th. I haven't had pain meds in 3 days and up to over 80 ounces of fluids over the last few days. Today was the first day that Dr. Anwar said I could start Protein Shakes and at 50 ounces already today. I was surprised at how full I got on half a shake.

I'm having mines removed next week during my surgery ( another friend of mine just had her surgery last week and at her request they are removing hers)

I had mine out at the same time. I also had scar tissue from a previous surgery that they had to deal with. I was in surgery for like 6 hours and spent 4 days in the hospital. I'm glad they took it because I had a gallstone years ago that finally passed by itself after a week of pain. It was pretty bad. Now I don't have to worry about that happening again!

I did! I was so glad to get it out. It was giving me soooo much trouble

Hi! I got it removed at the time of my surgery. I stayed at the hospital for 3 days, but I think that's just policy here. Everything went smoothly and I do not have to take any special measures with the added procedure, since the diet that's required for gallbladder surgery is actually less restrictive than the sleeve's diet. You might notice some changes in your stool color, but otherwise my recovery seems to be consistent with the loads of comments I read on WLS

Our Doctor doesn’t automatically remove the gallbladder but I do remember one of the consents last week being about the gallbladder and that if it looked like it needed to be removed they would remove it. Same with hiatal hernias. And another thing I can’t remember right now that if they see they will correct

Today was my pre-op appointment, my surgery is next Wednesday and I was informed that I should have my gallbladder removed at the same time has anyone had this done and are there any complications thank you. And how long was your hospital stay I'm starting to get nervous thank you.
