Day one for what ?

Thats AWESOME! Way to go GIRL!!

Yea I still got that too I'm just ignoring it. It's not working LOL

I had Dr. Hollis and he was amazing. I really dont have anything positive to say about the post op care in the recovery room but I hope that will be different for you. The general staff, OR staff and the pre op nurse were amazing! If you have any questios we are here. Alot of us on here had Dr. Hollis. Nikki

Me too Nyree. I did't realize i had surgery until i reached across the bed to turn of the the alarm clock becuase my husband had hit snoozed before jumping in the shower. Then it hit me, the pull from my middle incision. I actually got up and had half of my Protein Shake which I have'nt been able to drink sinch my surgery.

My prayers goes out to you and your family in this time of need. So sorry you are going through this. You can vent anytime girl!

I'm feeling awesome today. Which is shocking compaired to the last 6 days. Still going to take it slow and let my body heal. How are my fellow december bandster felling today ??

Welcome home Tara

Peaceful I was havng the same symptoms. I called my doctor because I was worried that I broke something and you know what ? He told me the same thing Lifewillbegood said.

When I first got on the scales I actually gained 5 lbs due to fluid swelling etc. But now the weight us just coming off because I'm not eating anything. I'm sure one I moved to mushy stage some weight will come back on again. I'm prepared because I know this is the beginning

I'm awake too. I'm post op day 5 and the shoulder pain wakes me up in the middle if the night. Glad to see you are doing well Leigh.

I was told no beans too. I love beans so that was a bummer. If u find out please let me know

How did she relieve tension from ur port?

I have been suck to my stomach all day. Very nauseous and bad case of diarrhea. This is my post op day 5 and I'm still on liquids. I hope I am better tomorrow and there is nothing wrong with my band.

I'm on thin liquids til Friday, then I go to thicker liquids like yogurt smoothies. I'm still confused on the consistency. Thin, Thick, Mushy, they all seem the same to me. I guess this Friday I want water down my tomato soup.

Nicole is my middle name and that is what everyone calls me or Nikki. I also had a hernia repair

Me I was banded on Friday. Still dealing with major shoulder pain. My doc says I can't have thicker liquids until Friday but I'm starting to get hungry. I did have some tomato soup but added beef broth to thin it some and it went OK.

I wonder why Dr's such different instruction on diets when we all have the same band

I feel the same thing! I'm only 5 days post op and I'm finally looking at doing some house chores today. When I wake up in the morning I feel like the band is in my throat. I called the doctor yesterday to ask them if it was ok to have this feeling of tightness in my chest after I drink something. They had informed me that this was normal that I was still swollen and to take smaller sips. I realized then this is what everyone is talking about when your band is talking to you.

Good Luck Anna
