I’m 8 weeks out and only lost 33 lbs. I’m reading lots of questions answers and a lot of people are talking about the weight melting off. It stress me to think im not losing like everyone else. Just need to vent

I’m thinking the same thing. Thank you

Yes!!!! It last about 3 weeks. Then it starts to slowly stop hurting. I was in the same shoes. I freaked out and called my dr. The nurses said it was normal. There is one big stitch they do on your right side. It will pass. I promise!!!!

Joyful4 replied to Lyds85's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I debated going thru the surgery all the way to the morning of. I was scared. Scared of change, scared of not being able to eat what I want. Scared I might fail. But I realize it’s about me being happy with myself and healthier for my family. The first day you basically have great sleep from the pain meds. You can have as many pop cycles as you want the second day and jello. That should make you feel like it isn’t all bad. Lol but for 3 weeks you will be sore. But like a snap, it’s gone and your back to doing normal things without pain. Like sleeping, getting up, bending over, etc. Can I ask you, have you tried weight watchers? -
Yes. 1 oz at meal time. Drinking my disgusting protein shakes. I’m terrified I’m going to gain and it’s only 4 weeks since I have.
