I've had this happen several times... I'd lose a pound and gain a pound and so on!! It was a definate plateau. It went on for a few weeks and wame it went away..and theweight started dropping again. i think that your body is just getting use to the weight it is at so it sits there for a while till it adjusts to your new weight. Your doing great girl keep it up!!

Indigestion or gas pressure is normal right after surgery. It should go away in a week or so...Try gasX. I know my dr let me do cream of wheat during my mushy phase but check with your dr to see if it is okay for you.I did alot of cream soups once I got to mushy stage... I did campels Soup alot but took out the noodles during full liquids. Good luck with the start of your weight loss journey. Welcome to band land!
