oh god I was drained for weeks' date=' LOL

Honestly, everyone heals at their own pace. I still have days where I have little energy. I still have somebloatedness and swelling.

I think you are doing great [/quote']

Thank you And after that walk i feel great but do feel a little drain and will take a nap I dont want to over do it but later today I will walk and check on the mail.

Ok i jus went for my second walk of the day and I was able to walk for about 25 mins.

Congrats and keep up the good work. Best wishes on your journey

Thank you lalaj I really appreciate that

I am not been banded yet but I would think feeling a little drained should be normal' date=' but Good for you for still getting up and walking WTG keep up the great work[/quote']

Thank you so much because I am so determined to get this weight off of me.

Good Morning Everyone

I am 3 days into my liquid diet after surgery and have been drinking all my fluids but been feelin a little drained but I was told by my nurse there will be a few days my energy level will be a little down. But i do still get up and walk as told. Today as i stated yesterday i will walk to the mailbox which I DID and i am very proud of my self. I also when i get done drinking Water i make my self get up and walk to through away the bottle. So i am feeling good. I actually cant wait until i am able to go back to the gym so i can really get fit.

Have a great day and God Bless All.

Way to go as far as moving around and getting up! I am 5 days post op and went back to work yesterday! It was not too bad' date=' today was actually a little worse because I pushed it yesterday but I am glad I am up and walking most of the day... I too have a little one at home, well a 4 yr old and a 17 month old and it is challenging! Sit on the couch and let your little one sit on you that way, it has worked better for me than just denying her as she had no part in that!

I still have gas bubbles and discomfort, but I also had a hernia repaired at the same time so I wonder if it is harder or not but I have no idea! I wish you the best and continue the great job so far! We will all get there and the future is so much brighter for us now![/quote']

Thank you Lady and I will try that the only thing about my daughter she is ruff and jus likes to be all over the place!!!!!!! Lololol

Congrats to you both' date=' this journey has been a wonderful thing for me. I've learned to eat healthy. I have been banded for 3 months and have not had a fill yet. I am 36 pounds down. I walk at least 20 minutes each day and I also work out on my glider in the evening. I am currently training for a 5k run. something that I want to accomplish before I reach my goal. Good luck to both of you, may you have a happy and health journey as well.

Many blessings upon you[/quote']

Thank you lady and congratz to you on your success so far you are doin very well especially not to have a fill yet. I will say I have never been a runner but that wld be one of my goals as well and you just gave me a lot of well power to try it.

Today is my 2nd day of surgery and i have not been feeling hungry as of yet, but my doctor only put me on liquid diet for a week and the mushy solid foods for like 2weeks.

Good Evening Everyone.

Today has been my second day since having my surgery and I feel great. I havent started feeling hungry for food as of yet, but I have been drinking a lot of Water, and broth because my throat is sooooo dry i know it says dnt drink it too cold but i have to have it a lil cold.

Now I do still get a little discomfort from the gas bubbles, so I only take my meds when I really feel pain and will say that is some good sleep lololololol. But I am walking around a lot and tomorrow I will be walking to the mailbox just to get a little more distance but not over due it. But my daughter is havin a fit because I cant pick her up ( 8 months) my little chuncky monkey is not having it lololol.

Hope all have a Blessed Evening
