6 days here... sooooo much gas. No hunger! I hope it lasts until I lose my un-needed weight. Loads of gas pain...Can someone come roll me around the floor for a couple days.:thumbup:

Had my surgery Oct 28. My Dr. said it was a wonderful thing that I lost my first 20 lbs prior to surgery or else he would not have performed the surgery once he saw how much fat that had accumulated on my liver. I started at 303. At surgery I was 280. It was only because of the liquid diet prior that I was still a candidate. I self imposed mine at 4 weeks prior. I did cheat somewhat at least once a week but kept it to a protein meal later in the day. It was hard but ohhhh how happy I am that I did it. It seems it is much harder to get to the stomach with a fatty liver. Good luck.

Good luck. Seems you and I are on the same wave as far as pain and stand stills. Had mine last Wednesday and still having those pains. I have been resting with a hot/moist compress on my stomach and shoulder area. It seems to move the gases and the pain soon dissapates. Of course the Vicodin has been a great help. Everyday I lose at least a pound.
