1. How much weight did you loose in the first week? >> I'm not really loosing that much ( just under 2 KG/7 days) 6 or 7 pounds I think...

2. What are some good meals to eat in the 2nd week. I was on full liquids so I enjoyed savory Soups in the blender the most.

3. Do you snack between meals? If so, what? Roasted almonds. 12 is a half a serving and it helps me not feel hungry.

4. Do you smoke? if so, how much? no

5. What is best juice to drink? None. Unless you do your own juiciing, I'd say juice is just "empty" calories.

6. Can you eat rice in the 2nd week? ( I live in japan, this is a rice country.....so hard to not eat rice) I'd say no.

7. How long after your surgery did you get a fill? 6 weeks

8. What is your present fill? ( mines is 4cc...is this too less?:...i'm 75KG/ 28yrs/5'4) 7.75 ccs

9. Did/do you pas a lot of gas? yep. It calmed down a month or two after surgery but it's still more than before.

10. How soon after can you really see a difference? Personally, I noticed a small difference around 35 pounds.

ETA: your starting weight is much lower than most of the people on this board, so I don't know that our feedback is going to translate well to your circumstance...
