1Day1Life4Now 882 Posted August 21, 2014 I had pain for the first 3 weeks. It gets a little better each day. stick to the fluids and don't attempt the solids any earlier than your doctor allows. You don't want to mess up your new stomach. In time it gets much easier to eat. Use this time to follow the diet and you will lose weight the quickest during this time. Good luck on your progress.
