I just had the surgery done on Thursday. I'am having stomach cramps, spasms, pain and discomfort. I have been afraid to eat anything, cause of all the discomfort that I'm having. The gas pains are unbearable. It hurts so much. I have also been depressed since the surgery. My question is will all of this pass. Or is this what I have to look forward to for the rest of my life.

Same here! I don’t even feel like I had surgery.

When are you planning on going back to work?

I am about 10 days out, feeling pretty good, able to tolerate fluids and Protein. The only thing is I still have pain in right side. The doctor at post op visit said the one stitch is probably pulling and causing the pain. Anyone else experience this?

Yes but it was my left side. It's getting better day by day though.

Hey guys ! I had my surgery on the 13th and am 10 pounds down as of today . I’m having a very hard time getting my liquids down though . I have only had about 10 oz today out of the 64 I need. Water makes me nauseous and I HATE the taste of crystal lite . HELPPP 😭

Oh no! Sorry your having trouble. Do you live in the US? 10 oz is not enough for a whole day. Can you call the Dr office? I hope it get easier for you. I will be thinking about you.

I'm 12 days post-op and I still have a hard time drinking Water -- it makes me instantly nauseous. My doctor said I can drink sugar-free juice, and that's been going down much easier. Also, I find that when I suck on ice cubes, the water doesn't bother me. That being said, I'm still not hitting my fluid goals yet and that bothers me, but I'm trying to just solely increase day by day and not go into panic mode. I hope things get better for you!

I too have a pain in my left side -- I feel it when I bend over, or twist in bed, or cough/laugh. Other than that, no other pain. Is this similar to what you had?

10 days post op. I'm down 13 pounds. I can't do three 2 oz food servings and three shakes in a day yet but I'm able to get my 48-64 oz of liquid and some food in. I just make sure that I'm getting at least 70 grams of Protein between my food and liquids.

That’s great! How are you feeling? If you work, how long did your surgeon want you to be out if you don’t mind me asking?

My job is done mostly via computer so I took a week and a half off. I go back tomorrow but I'm working remotely from home this week so I can practice timing out eating and getting fluids so I know how to prep for the office when I return this week.

My surgeon varies his recommendation based on what type of work someone does. If you aren't lifting heavy things or standing all day you can go back after a week or two. If you have a more physical job you may need to take off more time. You won't be able to lift anything heavier than 12 pounds the first month after surgery.

      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...

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
