Any one lost more than 200 lbs ?

I've lost 175 so far, and see no reason why 200 wouldn't be possible. Took about a year. -

About 6 business days -
Would agree that the pain from the surgery is nothing compared to the gas? I really didn't use the morphine pump, as I knew I still had that incredibly uncomfortable gas situation. It really didn't get better until I started drinking liquids.

Depends who you ask, but I would say yes. I haven't had any trouble getting or keeping water down, 2-3 oz at a time, just have to hold up if i feel the stomach pushing back a little.

Made it to the other side, no problems at all so far (knock on wood).
-

I wouldn't be surprised if the ones on YouTube are "Best case scenarios" i.e. very little blood loss. But yes, I thought the same thing.
