It's just from the swelling most likely.... How much Water are you drinking? And how long of a walk so you take? I walk at least 20 min or more and keep my heart rate between 123-141

Sktatey, hang in there..the weight will come off. If you continue to gain I would suggest contacting your doctor to check your band. Please keep me posted... I am on this journey with you

clear liquids for 48 hours after then full liquids until post op visit (day10) then doc will clear for solids. Kind of quicker than others. But first fill is in 3 weeks.

thats quick to your first fill. i have no idea when i will get mine, i only know im on fluids for four weeks.

I have to say... day five and i feel so good.My feet, which were so puffed and painful, are reduced in size and no pain anymore. plus my ankles are back to normal and my lower legs as well. i think that most of the 12 lbs i lost was fluid.. its just wonderful to be able to walk again without painful steps. i cant remember when this last happened .

i had bad gas pain last night, really bad. trapped in the collarbone and left neck. i got online and read up on it, and plain warm Water with fresh lemon juice sqeezed in will alleviate the pain. i had two small glasses over a couple of hours... had no pain through the night and none today either. so.. those of you who are still having issues, if you can get some fresh lemons... try it out for yourself.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
