Hi Jane7560!

I had had surgery on October 14th. I lost 5 lbs before surgery and I've lost 20 lbs since surgery. 25 total!

The hard part for me was the gas and nausea.

Day 1 was a breeze, Day 2 was the absolute worst due to gas and nausea. I couldn't even keep Water down. Day 4 was better I drove to the grocery store and ran a few errands.

By day 7 I felt completely normal. No nausea, no gas, and absolutely no pain.

I just feel like I've been doing major crunches.

Everyone's experience is a little different, so take all this with a grain of salt.

I had surgery 8/11/16. The first few days were painful due to gas pain in my shoulder and soreness at the incision sites, but that is what pain meds are for By week 2 I was feeling much better, though low on energy for the first month.

I have lost 28 lbs since surgery.

The rate you lose can have a lot to do with your starting bmi and how much you lose prior to surgery (not to mention your genetics, gender, age, activity level, and eating habits). I started at 47 bmi and lost 22 lbs prior to surgery. Now I'm at 38.5 bmi.
