    left back pain

    Lots of people have that. Apparently most of the maneuvering around through muscles, etc. is on the left side. Mine stopped hurting around week three.

    I'm so tired

    I had surgery 12/27 and I'm still tired. I was told that it might take around six weeks to get back to normal.

    Left side pain

    I have that pain as well. I was told that the majority of the work is done on that side, so the nerves and muscles are sore. Sometimes it's a sharp pain and other times just a dull ache. It has improved every week, though.

    I need some help...

    I am in the same boat. Surgery was almost two weeks ago and I've lost 1-1/2 lbs. can't believe I did this to myself.
  5. I had gastric bypass surgery on Dec. 27. I'm on full liquids now, and I'll start puréed meat on Jan. 2 I haven't lost any weight yet, in fact I show a 3 lb gain, but I'm sure that's still IV fluids and bloating from the hospital. My first dr appt is 4 weeks after the surgery, so I should probably wait and see what the scales say at that time. Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
  6. Awesome! You are such an encouragement!
  7. Hi Melynie, I'm okay, just very sore... More than I expected. Luckily, I haven't had any nausea or queasiness. I haven't had any problem with eating or drinking anything. Right now, my stomach is very sore and a lot of it is gas, which is AWFUL. I feel like something is stabbing me in the back and shoulders! I think I will be at a turning point when this goes away.
