WEIGHT LOSS / SWELLING

HI. EVERYONE I JUST GOT OFF THE SCALES AND I'M DOWN 10 LB. WHEN DOES THE SWELLING GO AWAY .

Congrats on the 10 pounds!! That is awesome! I don't know when the swelling goes completely down. I had my open RNY on June 1st and it looks like the swelling has gone down on my upper abdomin...but not on my lower abdomin. I still have to wear loose pants. I have lost 20 pounds, but when I put on the pants that I wore before wls, they still feel tight in the waist and push my gutts up towards my incision...and that's just too uncomfortable. I hope it goes away soon! I'm supposed to go back to work next week! Pam

Pamela dont feel bad that problem with the pants is exactly what i go thru....most pants feel icky.....I imagine this will go away in all good time. EACh day i know i feel better and better. HANG in their soon we will be beauties!
