Did you gain Fluid weight after surgery? I did and took time to come off. You are two weeks out right? What are you eating? I was still on liquids, but when I started on purees I gained a bit too. Relax and know you won't fail. It will come off this is your journey try not to compare. Best wishes.

6 Week Out Photo...before And After
Swimmer replied to rodswife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great job keep up the hard work! -
I have been on prilosec since surgery and tried to go without and couldn't at three months. A friend's doctor said she only needed it for a month. So I'm curious are you still taking one or did you just need it for a month. I'm thinking I'll be on it forever and that's ok.

Journey Begins Today, I Am Off To The Airport!
Swimmer replied to NJsharon's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Welcome to the losers bench Sharon. Best wishes to those others with surgery coming up! -
I agree I drink up to the meal, but not for an hour after just too uncomfortable. First time I got sick was a reheated burger, no bun. I can't do beef. Also eating slow is a big one. stay away from high sugar and fried food. Good luck.
