It might explain for you. I did this and it helped along with the Whole30 diet program. The meds gave me the kick start I needed to start this program. My doctor would only give me the phentermine. I lost about 12 lbs in about 5 weeks without calorie counting or measuring. Just cut out my problem foods. There is tons of info on Whole 30 online, you don't need to pay for a program. Walmart has a lot of its compliant products. Your weight gain might not feel like a lot to some people but you do not want to let it get out of control again. Its a slippery slope.
Lol I finally had a bowel movement as well this morning. It definitely seemed to hel the gas pain
I had the surgery on the 8th and today the gas or almost gone. I even went #2. So beware of that when it happens b close to that area for a bit lol
Thank you so much!!! I was so worried! I'm definitely gonna try the heat mat.

It's caused by trapped gas. They pump your abdominal cavity full of air so they have more room to maneuver the instruments and can see to do the surgery. Walking helps move the gas around so your body can get rid of it. Walk around as much as you can.
Taking short breaths is not a good idea. You could end up with pneumonia. Taking deep breaths, even if you have pain, helps move the gas around too.
You could try a heating pad. That helped me a lot.

I had the operation this Thursday 7/9/2020 I spent the night in the hospital and then was discharged 24hours later. I know about the pain in the stomach and such but I have had REALLY bad sharp pains in my left shoulder when I breath deeply ever since. Has anyone else had this problem? It hurts so bad that I have been trying to only take short shallow breaths and even those sometimes hurt.
Hi everyone! I recently made a weight loss journey on Instagram! In 2014 I lost 160lbs after having the gastric sleeve. I gained about 80 back after some life events and a pregnancy, but my new goal was to get down 120lbs more, so far I'm 7.8lbs down!. I made this Instagram page to keep myself accountable, and also help others be inspired! I love to help people, so please feel free to ask any questions. It is a very very new Instagram, so please bare with me while I get some more content ?
This is the first time I've ever done something like this, so I'd also really love feedback on what you guys would like to see! Thanks guys!

Well 2 days after surgery and the gas releasing no joke on some pain. Drinking a lot slower than the just after surgery time. I had some bouts of nausea but it was not f I'm drinking water I believe it was from the liquid medicine. 1 wound looks like full of blood but no pain but 2 areas of the 6 are feeling itchy and stinging. All seems to be doing alright and no major complaints. I'm glad it is over and soon a new me will come about.
