Very good! My energy is through the roof. I guess eating healthy and avoiding sugar really changes the game!

I have a question to everybody: I am 4 weeks out and already back to exercising (I have been exercising regularly for 2 years and is quite fit for my size). I am instructed to eat no more than 600 calories a day but I am already burning more than that working out (today I burned 1000 calls at orange theory then 400 doing Krav Maga (self defense) class). Is 600 clas enough? I am not hungry and have lost 21 lbs since op day. Thanks!

Same; finding it very easy to drink fluids - can down a 16 oz water bottle in 5 minutes. My worry is the surgery was not done correctly (I had it done at a center of excellence here in the US)

Same here. During the night after surgery I had a catheter in place because I could not go and the gas pain was horrible. I screamed at the charge nurse in the early dawn “get this catheter out or I will take it out myself” and she obliged 😹

I had my surgery on the 9th today I am 2 weeks out today. My surgery day weight was 275 lb (I am 5’ 8”, male, 40) and today it is 262 lb (13 lb down) still on all liquid diet but I expect the surgeon will advance me to soft diet tom at the 1st post op meeting Gas pain was real took 10 days to go away weird enough I can drink a lot - comfortably. I can down a 16 oz water bottle in 5 minutes. Is this normal? good luck All!

Hi All my first post here had my surgery on 1/9. Only lost 4 lb in one week. I am reading some folks have lost as much as 10-15 lbs in the same period. Concerning? HW: 340 lb Surgery day: 275 lb
