I am so thankful and blessed to have had the surgery. I wouldn't change it and couldn't be happier with my choice to get it. I have my times when eating is harder then normal but the outcome is worth it. I loved food before and now food isn't the same. But that's good for me because pretty sure I was becoming addicted to food. I want to lose another 40-50 lbs. For anyone needing reassurance' date=' gastric bypass was the best for me.[/quote']

Question how long did u stay on liquid and puree foods?

I felt the same way! Definitely feel different now. I'm 6 weeks out and down 35 lbs. 50 lbs since pre op diet. Give it another 2-3 weeks and you'll feel like yourself again.

My weight loss has also been slow. Tomorrow is two months for me.

The only good thing with slower weight loss is normally less excess skin.

Campka3 I probably stayed on liquids for a week and then pured for a week and then mushy foods for another week.

My entire abdomen is bruised and swollen after surgery - even in places far from the incisions.
