Day 1 After Lap Band

By BB12

· 504 views

First day after surgery and I'm sore. I have sneezed today and boy does that hurt too. I have been up walking around the house but thats about it. Just up and down today. Fluids have been well today. Been keeping track of my intake and output. Breakfast: 2 ounces Nectar Protein Shake 2 ounces Gelatin Drink. Then every 20 minutes eating some ice chips. Lunch: 2 ounces of Broth 2 ounces Propel Zero. More ice chips between. Dinner: 2 ounces protein drink 2 ounces Broth. More ice chips. Able to keep it all down. No nausea today. I have been voiding well too so I must be getting enough fluids. Day 2 tomorrow will probably be about the same. Going to try and include some sugar free popsicles tomorrow to change it up a bit. I got on the chat in here earlier and it was very informative. Looks like Im doing what I should be. Hoping tomorrow will be a less sore day for me. Have a great night!

    Congratulations, I am happy for you. I am glad everything went well. Did you have any issues after surgery? Nausea, vomiting, or any other issues?

    No nausea or vomiting. Just real tenderness at incision sites and sneeing or coughing is painful. The gas pains are bad too. Still today having those. Each day has gotten better though.

    CONGRATS! I am excited for you. Sounds like you are right on track. Just stick to the rules the dr gave you and when the time is right, exercise. I know it is a pain, (it was expecially for me since I had never done it).

    You are going to do great.

    best of luck!
