I do the same as AAsosa. When I hit a stall, turn down carbs and do an extra lap of walking. I’m down 40 lbs since surgery on 4/24.

Shbunni - I’ve heard that the weight loss continues but is not consistent week to week. You can go from nothing loss one week to 5lbs loss the next week. Just keep following your plan and be patient. Also, have you been cleared to start exercising?

Hi browneyez So do you need to purée the egg or it’s ok to eat scrambled ? My surgery date was the day before yours.

I had my two week postop today and my doctor said most people experience symptoms like yours Olivia. Not yet sure why I can barely smell anything.... HW 250 SW 237 Two post op:223 5’3

I’m two weeks postop. Anyone notice that their sense of smell changed? I can barely smell anything....

I agree... please follow the post surgery regimen and I’m sure your feelings will change once you see results in the mirror and have more food choices.

I was told to let the bandages fall off naturally.

Incision pain has lessened from slight pain to a minor sting. I have not felt the need for pain meds. I’ve been walking since post op day 1 and the gas is still a problem.

I am on day 4 postop and still experiencing what I describe as shooting gas spasms upwards through my diaphragm. I’m getting 64oz water 60 grams protein, multivitamin, gasx, etc. any suggestions?

I had surgery on 4/24. Still get gas pains although I get up and walk every hour. Made a schedule to ensure I’m getting protein, fluids, take multivitamin, etc. not taking any pain meds because pain is tolerable .

Hello I don’t have suggestions because I have surgery tomorrow. However I’ve read many post and watched many videos. Most people say the weight-loss fluctuates during the first year. I think what you’re experiencing is typical. Keep up the good work.

Good luck! I go tomorrow!
