11 Days Post Op

· 468 views

Today is my 11th day post op. and I feel fine. I still have a huge bruse on my stomach and the steri strips are still in place. I am sick of protien drinks,(slim fast, equate, atkins and chicken broth makes me gag(yuck). I still have a lump on my stomach, I think it is the band I am feeling. I am not depressed anymore and I am not dreaming of food. I think my withdrawls are over. I don't watch food comercials especially the fast food cometcials on TV and I don't watch the Food Network any more. I am ready to go back to work. So I still feel fine. Thank God.

    Yes the lump on your tummy is your band, it is your port. It will always be there. I am fortunate, mine lays pretty flat as i have lost weight. The shakes and liquids do get pretty boring no matter how you mix them up, you should advance soon to soft foods and regular, just depends on your MD. Good luck to you.
