I tried taking some pictures but I'm not really seeing a big difference on the scale however people are telling me that they are seeing the difference and the only place I can see it is in my face and in my stomach Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

Yes 6 weeks and I'm glad that I did because during the six weeks they found out that my gallbladder was bad as well and I had to have it removed last Thursday this is a major surgery and the body needs time to heal Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App -

You are absolutely right I was advised to take 6 weeks off after my sleeve and I did just that you will be too weak to do full day's work and you may be in a little more pain than you think Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App -

On Thursday I saw my surgeon for the first time they moved me up to full liquids however yesterday I tried a piece of fish which went down really well but made me feel extremely full and I see a lot of people complaining about not getting their liquids in I was never a big Water Drinker before I drink every other day and I was fine so I do the same thing now but I'm not having any problems with the liquid Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

I just had my surgery on July 19th I am still very swollen and very new to this I am also feeling like maybe what I've done was too drastic and maybe I should have done this on my own the pain is ok at this point when I find that I am feeling hungry and then I am still a bit gassy I am hoping that by seeing results I'll start to feel better about what I've done to myself I guess that is part of the mental battle bad they want you to deal with prior to having the surgery but that's not possible being as you have not been cut at that point now that I have I feel like I have lost something Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App
