What if it just...doesn’t work?
Cantstop1977 replied to brooketw's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You are correct! I’ve started moving on the scale again but not checking everyday (which is a bad habit)! -

The same for me! I am nervous! I lost 8 pounds pre surgery and then 12 within the first week or so. I had my surgery Feb. 4th. I haven’t lost a pound since the first post week! 🥺 -
I had my surgery on Feb. 4th. The doc did tell me of some gas discomfort but this is crazy! First 2 days I was vomiting (general anesthesia does that to me) but now it is constant gas pains. Does it get any better?!

Thanks everyone for all the advice! Exactly 2 weeks post op and I feel 10x better than I did! I have moved from the gas to the limo in my throat feeling I keep reading about lol! No longer feeling weak so I’ll take the lump over that feeling any day! I can finally take a big sip of water lol and I’m down 24 lbs!!! -

I totally understand. Yesterday was day 5 and I felt good. I woke up this morning feeling terrible. I am so weak today. I am honestly thinking about going to the doc. All I keep thinking is this too shall pass. 😢 -
I had mine on Feb 4th! And like everyone said each experience is different! I came home the same day and only took pain meds for 1 day. (They always make me nauseous). I work from home so I was able to do so. My only issue is I don’t feel like I’m getting enough fluids ( just don’t want any) but I’m adjusting and doing better today! Anddddddd I’m down 18 pounds! You got this! ❤️

I’m so glad a friend told me about this website/forum. Glad to know I wasn’t alone in my journey. 💙

I like it too. It is good for advice, and also when you are feeling depressed to know there are other people with the same experience at you.

Yes! My daughter is a huge snacker (no weight issues) and I didn’t realize how much until me being restricted. I am a bored snacker and love bread sweets but jolly ranchers and almonds were my thing! I miss them so! I have noticed that my gas wasn’t too bad today but I feel weak. I know it’s because I’m not eating but I can’t bring myself to drink some of these shakes. -

So sorry to hear about your mother. You’ll be fine. I am 4 days post op and today was the first day I felt a little hungry. I’m not sure about the hair part (mine is already thin) but I’ll keep u posted.
