So I wanted to finally post a before and after photo of the weight loss I've lost since surgery. The first photo I am on the in the stripped black shirt ( the biggest girl in the photo) and that picture was two days before I had surgery on January 22. Second photo is from today. So happy so far!

Well I have to say I lost 20 pre op and the rest post op. I think pre op I lost weight quickly because I cut out almost all sugar and soda and bread and only drank water. I am at a stall right now, I haven't lost anything in a week.

I guess my only tip is follow ur doctors rules. There in place for a reason. My biggest challenge right now is head hunger. I'm physically never hungry and most cases don't feel full. Mentally prepare for that. Don't give in to the head hunger.

I went to bed last night and shortly after I got this really bad sharp burning intense pain underneath my lower right incision and the pain hasn't gone away. The more I move the worse the pain gets. I'm three weeks out. Is this normal?
-
It looks swollen. I don't think it's gas. It burns even lightly touching the area.
-
I'm three weeks out. Are we allowed to drink orange juice?

January 2013 Post Op
vbgirl264 replied to ready2smile's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor only told me nothing more than 5 pounds for a week and than go back to normal. My son is 22 months old and weighs 35 pounds and I've been carrying/picking him up since after the first week. My right side of my stomach gets really bad pain if i move the wrong way or turn over. It's like a intense burning stinging sensation. I assume its my muscle healing. How long till that's gone? -
That's what my nut said. I've had it happen once or twice now.
-
I was told that some people get runny noses when they get full. That its there bodies way of saying your done.
-
I'm in the soft food phase and were wondering about pickles. Are we allowed to have them?
-
Any experience dehydration early on post op? I'm 10 days out and I don't feel well at all and can barely drink or eat. I'm worried I'm gonna get dyhydrated

So I'm 9 days post op and today I went to my doctor because I have a blood clot on my forearm, which they think is from my Iv. Hurts so badly. The doctor said its superficial, which is good because it won't travel. Has anyone else experience this?
