One month post op and I'm down 44 lbs. I am terrified though, haven't lost a pound in 5 days. Been through this before, lap band in 2010, was 100lbs lighter three years later. However I was vomiting at night and having problems ingesting food. Band loosened and gained 40lbs in 4 months. Fast forward pre surgery I was 30lbs heavier than my per lap band weight.
I feel great so far, and am getting ready to get back in the gym. I'm sure that will stimulate weight loss. I feel like as soon as I transitioned to soft food the weight loss stopped. Like my body is trying to stay fat.
I have to stay positive and trust the process. Time to hit the gym
