Congratulations! I'm 8 weeks post op and just hit 56 pounds lost! I'm so happy and feel so much better. I didn't notice a loss in my stomach right away but trust me it WILL come.

I had surgery on the 7/11 and was supposed to have my post op on 7/19 but didn't make it cuz I ended up back in hospital.. But long story short I had it today so a little over two weeks.. But I'm down 27lbs.. I notice it in my legs and arms and face but barely in my stomach area even tho I notice it in the way my clothes fit.. Regardless I'm so happy I made the right decision!! Thanks everyone on here for helping me with my journey along the way!!

❤️????

Wow, that's awesome, 27 pounds already? I can't wait to get my surgery ! I'm looking at probably September .

Hey guys, my surgery was April 12th and felt compelled to tell you all... it slowly gets better and stop obsessing over the scale. It WILL come off and when it does it happens FAST. Concentrate on getting in your nutrition so you feel human. Its tough and for the first month I almost regretted the decision to have surgery but now Im 65lbs lighter and am finally getting a bit of energy back. Good luck to you all!

I am 5 days post op gastric bypass. I am regretting having done this surgery. I feel horribly ill (lots of diarrhea) and the pain is still lingering. As soon as I sip a Protein shake it goes right through me. I am getting depressed as I can not leave the house in case of an accident. Has anyone else experienced this? Feeling defeated

@@inkdcosmoqueen, Congratulations! An awesome first weigh-in sure makes you feel good about your WLS, doesn’t it?? Even if you did have a rough time of it at the beginning, I am glad you are staying positive and seeing the results you are hoping for! I hope it is smoother for you and just as successful the rest of the way!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
