I am currently a week out also. I understand the struggles. I was 232 when i went in for surgery and when i went home i was 241, i was so disgusted. I know it was fluids and being swollen, but it did not help me. I am now 229, I only got sick once, but i do get diarrhea. I am have several friends that have had positive ends. They have tried small foods earlier than the papers the doctor gave me, and i wonder if it would be safe to try also. I get my staples out today. Then i get to go to baby food. I am so excited to get to try fish soon.

Thank you so much. This was my last result and u keep pressuring myself that I'm doing it all wrong and it won't work for me. -

Thank you Johnathon. That helps a lot. I tried a piece size of my pinky nail and it did not work. Then I tried a 1/3 cup of soup and that did not work. Chicken, chicken soup, mashed potatoes, and cheese seem to stay down the best. I definitely want to start water aerobics. I think it would help the best. My weight has gone down but it fluctuates daily. I know I shouldn't check it all the time. But I can't seem to help it. -

I can keep those down but tried a few bites of a soft steak and that did not go well, I threw up my first time. So sticking with fish and softer foods. -

I'm on the soft foods starting tonight and my boyfriend made small lobsters and fish. I ate about half of one. And no fish. I am very full and loved it very much. I read many people's responses to stalling and b I think I am dealing with that now. Not having a menstrual for over five years I finally got it after this surgery. Almost two weeks straight. It's making feel so bloated. Any one every deal with this?. -

I am now at 216. The Drs paper said third week I can soft foods. Did anyone else start soft foods like fish and crab at this time? I still wonder if I'm pushing foods. Anyone experience this? -

Thank you so much a friend has this done and claimed he lost 100 in two months another said they lost everyday. So I know I need to remember my body is different and it won't come off all at once. I am on pureed/soft food. I have not had any dumping or getting sick so I figured I was good. -

Mine has stopped at 215. I even started my period when I haven't had one for over a year. I am so nervous that I did something wrong. Should I make an app with my dr? -

Thank you guys so much. I'm down 18 pounds since the the 23rd of this month. I do try a few things but after about 3 toddler bites I'm full I have had dumping symptoms. So I am becareful of what I try. No bread or pasta. Just mashed potatoes and blended chicken.
