theresa 13 Posted June 4, 2012 Good luck to all of you. And walking is extremely important. I am 5 weeks post op and I was up walking 3 hours after I got to my room from surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jen2248 31 Posted June 4, 2012 My starting weight before preop diet was 275lbs. But this is my 2nd surgery. 16 years ago my start weight was 425lbs. I had been sick and found out that my problems were caused by a fistula (an opening in my staples) I had to have my stomach removed and had to have new stomach about 4oz. I seem to be loosing more but recovery is so slow for me. Having swelling and only one bowel movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
