CJsmom84 90 Posted December 31, 2012 Before I went in for surgery I told my hubs I wanted to know how much my stomach weighed. I forgot to ask the doc about. Well my awesome hubs asked him when he let my hubs know I was out and it went smoothly. Well, my doc was so awesome he gave me paper work on my first post op appt. The average stomach weighs 2lbs, mine weighed 3.9 lbs and thats just the part they took out. For me I truly wanted to know the damage I did to my body from eating so many years. Did anyone else find this out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
