I have not been able to exercise in over a month. Today I was cleared to walk on the treadmill. Did 30 minutes and I was in heaven. So nice to get started!

Did your dr. Recommend a fiber supplement. A friend of mine had lb and another had bypass and they are both on fiber supplements.

Hang in there honey! My first night was the worst. Pain meds are key. Walking too if you can. I had a panic attack in the hospital. So I totally understand. We are here for you sweetie! You got this!

My Doc Does Liqueds For A Month- What Can I Expect To Lose?
Banana2363 replied to diamante's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had 5 days pre op and 7 days post op liquids. Now I am full liquids/mushies. I do 1 or 2 shakes a day to help my protein and then one chewy meal. Plus snacks if I am hungry. I am still getting way below 1000 calories a day -
Restriction Is A Lot Less After 4.5 Days Post Op - Is This Normal ?
Banana2363 replied to marketingdude's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I totally get this! I graduated to mushies last Thursday and have eaten 1/2 cup mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup of scrambled eggs and 1/2 cup refrained beans. Not all in the same day. But I am not nearly as restricted as I was week 1. Still only eating 1 or 2 meals of mushy and the rest shakes. Hoping my first full will get me where I feel restricted. -

October 2012 Bandsters
Banana2363 replied to NYTeacher's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Started full liquids today. Got to have cheddar cheese soup with some taco season. Never thought it would be so good to have a "normal" meal! -
I was banded on the 9th and today my shoulder and gas pains have finally subsided. Walking, water and the heating pad have been my best friends.

Good luck doll. You will be just fine. I agree, the gas pains were the worst. -

I was banded on the 9th. Still on clears. Follow up tomorrow and hoping to go on full liquid/mushies soon. A girl can only take so much chocolate Protein shakes. Recovery has been great. Still sore at a few incision sites. Have lost 15 pounds since the 4th when I went on pre op -
Good luck y'all! I was only on the pre op for 5 long days. Lots of water!
-
Ok, that's on my next stage. It says cream of wheat and grits... I don't like either. Any suggestions?
-
Mine too Ms. Blue. Kinda crazy it's time already. Have a great day sweetie!

So I am only 4 days post op and I had to go back to work. I am a wedding planner. So tonight I had a wedding and I felt amazing. I got out there and dances with the bride and groom, ran around (well walled quickly) and got stuff done. I feel So good. I know I might have maybe over done it, but it was so worth it!!
-
Yep, I feel like I am starving! I am a stickler on my plan but tonight I got SO hungry. I wanted mexican food so bad but I resisted. Should I be this hungry? Even my tummy is rumbling.
-
Just wondering how everyone is doing? Any complaints. Tips, advice?

I am at a wedding rehearsal and they are eating my very favorite Mexican food! I am sitting with my protein shake 2 oz and trying to distract myself. I got this.
