When I started this journey, I knew it would be life changing and the wightloss would be dramatic. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be down 100lbs in just four short months. It's hard for even me to believe. My (or should I say my wife's) biggest complaint is the flatulance. I don't know what it is, but I have had some pretty wicked gas since the operation. Oh well, it's a small price to pay for 100lbs.

Cheers,

Honzy

Congratulations on the 100 lbs, that is a great achievement.

I know when I was going through this wonderful phase of overnight weightloss, I used to wonder where those 2 pounds had gone in the night - did they leak into my sheets???

THe loss will suddenly get much slwer, and you will have stalls - they are absolutely normal.

And the flatulence is (unfortunately) also absolutely normal. Our flora and fauna have been radically altered. It's not just constant, it's extremely odiferous.

Carbs seems to be my main triggers for the toots.
