kysia81 11 Posted May 23, 2012 O week one is ok, I have heart burn a lot and gas yet gas x is not working, going to doctor tomorrow. I have only lost 4kg since surgery! I thought it would go quicker! I had lost most of that 3 days before surgery on the liquid diet. So I wish I can lose more! Maybe next week for week 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bubblesbgood 29 Posted May 23, 2012 ohhh hang in there dont forget your body is probably still swollen from surgery and you can stiill hold some Fluid. take it easy on yourself and keep going you will get there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyGastricSleeveLife 180 Posted May 23, 2012 Have you been walking? If it's surgical gas, then walking is the only thing that will relieve it, Gas-X won't. There is also a lot of swelling and a lot of extra fluids we are given during surgery. It can take time for the swelling to go down and fluids to leave, so some people take more than others to lose all that extra weight from surgery. Hang in there!! Good luck with your appointment.

kysia81 11 Posted May 24, 2012 Yes I am walking not doing too much more then that! Passing gas lots but I have no issues eating and so I will have some soft food, like I had some mash potatoes here. But not losing any weight And I thought I would be by now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
