On the losing side

Well, I'm 4 weeks post op and have officially lost 30 lbs. Is this a pretty normal result that others have had? I'm very excited but wish I could eat without puking...I don't get sick all the time. I'm told this will get better with time. Sue McD

Welcome to the losing side Sue! The puking thing does get better - at least in my experience! Just remember to chew chew chew lol. Congratulations! Cathy

Sue- that is a great weightloss. People are different, so you cant really compare. At 1 month out I was at -39 lbs. I have a friend that had the surgery and she wont be 1 month out until July 13th and she's already lost 34 lbs. I've only gotten sick 1 time although I've felt like crap SEVERAL times. The puking will get better. Just hang in there! ((( hugs))))

Sue, Congrats on your weight loss!!! I haven't had any puking experiences yet, but I am only 8 days out. I just had some nausea over the pain meds. I would love to know what causes you to puke so that I can avoid that. I start on pureed foods next Tuesday. Cindy Lou Who
