No Restriction 2 Weeks Post Op

Scared in going to put on weight that I lost within the next 2 weeks before my first visit back with the sugeon!

I'm almost two weeks post op and have gained a few pounds back...really sad about that. The hunger is back which is really hard to deal with after everything going so well at first. I understand the reasons for this, but it's still tough. I'm eating very little but I guess not little enough. I'm hoping he'll give me a fill today since I'm feeling and healing great.

That time between surgery and having enough fill to reach the green zone.

The time you have to fight with everything you have to stick to LB eating rules.

Do you really want to lose weight? Then you can do this! I know I do and I will!

Best wishes!
