Congrats on getting your surgery done and ovre with! As for the 8 pounds it is simply all the IV fluids that tthey pump into you from the time you enter the hospital to the time you leave, and dont worry that will come off quick plus lots more! As for the hunger could it be acid? Did they put you on an acid reducer yet? The pain in your right side is prolly from the gas I had a pain right under my right rib cage for days after surgrey but it dooes go away . Just try to do alot of walking. Although if you are really concerned with it call your dr they will know best.

Good luck and keep us updated

I had Surgery Oct 25th.. I lost 10lbs pre surgery and am just now slowly losing my weight! My doctor said the same as the other post, its a combo of both the fluids and the anesthesia and not to really expect to lose weight right away. I HATED the food commercials right after surgery. I have never wanted a burger or pizza more in my life! LOL... When I went to my post op, my doctor actually gave me pictures of my surgery. Kinda creepy, but cool at the same time.

By the way, I was a big carbo addict and still CRAVE pasta's and potatoes.. I bought myself cream of potato Soup and that helped :rolleyes:

Good luck to you

      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?
