Has anyone experienced an odd smell in their urine? I've noticed for 2 weeks mine smells like ointment.
-
My gyn said it could be really concentrated and causing to odor.

Thanks, my md has seen my incision several times. He says it's healing nicely

I'm now 2 months out and I've lost 32 lbs. I guess that's good. I think I expected to lose a lot faster but I haven't really exercised much only walking/jogging 3 times a week. My incision is still open and leaking so I don't do heavy things. My fiancé is bringing my treadmill up from the basement so I can walk more often. We'll see how things go then. I really wish my incision would close. but other than that surgery was really easy

I feel like I'm able to eat more now than before. I'm not sure why. Sometimes I can eat a meal and other times I'm full after a few bites. I really don't wanna start getting too many calories in. I think I'll start journaling how much I eat to make sure.

Hunger - did it come back and when?

I feel the same way. I'm able to eat more and craving sweets again. Not happy about it but I can resist. -
When did everyone get clearer for working out?
ladystl replied to tampa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was cleared 1 week after surgery but my incision was open so I only walked for the first month. I'm 2 months out and my incision is still healing so I only do mild exercise. -
Preop 308 Sw 295 Cw 278 Everything is going well I can't wait til my incision closes up so I can exercise to help with weight loss. My clothes are getting a little big I definitely don't want to walk around in baggy clothes too long.

So how much weight are you supposed to lose the first month? I hear people are losing up to 30 lbs in the first month. I've only lost 12lbs so far and I don't know how to feel about that.
-
Ok thanks everybody
-
So I wasn't nervous before but I am now. I have only lost 6 lbs since surgery a month ago. Is that normal or am I missing something?
-
Ok I feel much better now. Thanks. All together I've lost 23 lbs for post op until now. Today marks 1 month out. I did gain weight while in the hospital so I guess I'm doing good. I just see people who've lost 50 lbs the first 2 months and thought I was doing something wrong.

How long did you guys wait to exercise? I'm almost 5 weeks out and my Doc cleared me to exercise at 2 weeks out but my incision is an open hole and leaking constantly so I'm nervous to workout and make it worse. I'm trying to let it heal but I want to work out to help weight loss. I've only lost 11lbs since surgery on August 19.

I was sleeved aug 19 and only lost 12lbs but 22lbs since preop. I'm not worried yet I know it will come. -
Today I start the pre op diet. Surgery is almost here. I'll see how this goes.
-
I really want a soda bad bad bad but I'm not gonna do it. It's all I see around me

-
Has anyone experienced leakage from their incision site?
-
Yes they said its normal, just watch for signs of infection.
-
I'm wondering if anyone cheated on their post op diet and the consequences.

It's coming from my belly button, it's doesn't smell, it's slightly pink in color and pretty thin
-
Went back to work today. 1 week out I think that may have been pushing it because exhausted and I'm suppose to go to night school tonight but I don't think that's happening.

Surgery was good no complaints. I did throw up but I think I had eaten to much. No bad stomach pain just really tired.
