Joewy

Hey, I’m Joey I’m from New Jersey. I’m probably one of the youngest people to be on this forums as I just turned 17 at the start of this month. I was 390 pounds at my highest, 375 pounds in the day of surgery (08/28/18) and am currently 345 lbs. at the moment I’m super worried because this morning I gained a pound for the first time. I do pretty heavy exercise 2 or 3 times a day and pretty much eat the way I’m supposed to with a very few modifications. If anything I’m eating less then I’m supposed to. Why did I gain a pound? Also how much 16.9 oz water bottles should I have a day and how long should it take me to finish one? Thank you!

If you have a opinion on weed, good for you but I am not asking to hear it. I am just looking for help. So I had my surgery on the 28th of August and for the last 3 days before it I smoked marijuana even though everyone says not to. My surgery results were amazing so far, no feelings of having to throw up, 17 pounds down already, and almost no pain left as of today just a slight soar feeling. I am a regular marijuana user and I want to start smoking again. Do you think ill be okay if I resumed?

Im pretty good at preventing myself from coughing.

I cant thank you enough!!

Not to comfortable with asking plus I feel like as a doctor you're required to tell me not to lol

Obviously this is me being bias but thank you so much this is the answer I wanted to hear haha. Few questions, what surgery did you have done and how was the coughing during your sessions?

Im very good at controlling my appetite when smoking. Is pneumonia the only risk from doing this? Also I am also good at controlling how often and how much I smoke.
