Hi all, Had my 1 week Doc. visit today. Lost 16 lbs. in 2 weeks had to do the liq. on week before surgery. On Full liq. for 2 more weeks, then soft foods for Christmas. Have no pain but can't burp up the air i get in. Should have only 4 oz but I can get in 8oz at once, my friend had the surgery the same day same Doc. and has a hard time getting down 4 oz. I hope the full liq. will fill me up more. Have been walking about 4 hrs a day. Doc. said I will have my first fill on 1-12-10. Have not got sick at all... yet. Be Safe all !! :rolleyes2:

I am in the same boat as you are. I had my surgery on Dec.3rd and I am having some gas pains but mine is on the left side of my chest, and my port area hurts when I stand. Been doing alot of walking that helps out or lay on your side if you can, it pulls but I us a pillow under my side.
