  1. Brused Around The Port

    Yes walking is actually good for you! I try to walk around every hour I'm up for about 10 mins . It helps with the gas a lot!

    Day 3 after my Sils Lapband surgery and things are getting better! however still have lots of gas and now I have started bowel movements which aren't the greatest ! I can move a little better and my incision is healing well just a little bruising by where my port is on the right side.. Hoping it all improves!! because my first day home I was deff regretting this decision that I had made but little by little it's all working well
