Keep in mind that the goal after surgery is to heal not to lose weight. You've got to give your body a chance to get back to where it needs to be. We all want it to be done overnight and that just doesn't happen. Be patient. When you go for your first fill be honest with the doctor and tell them you need more direction. Tell them you need to know exactly what you should be doing. Ask for homework! They are there to help you. Don't be embarrassed or ashamed to ask any question (bowel movements, etc.) You are not their first patient and doubtless they have heard it all! Stay on these boards if you can't find a support group -- it's something very helpful!
