    rodriguez2013 got a reaction from ☠carolinagirl☠ in Day 4 post op and I just want to feel normal   
    I had the same thoughts. I had my band placed on Monday 8/26/13 and by wednesday I was thinking "what did I do"
    Wednesday was tough! I sat in a chair and cried for almost a hour and a haf, the pain from the gas and the constant belching was unberable! I was so drained I went back to bed and slept for 3 hours.
    I can also relate to the sleeping issuses others have posted. I too have sleep almost up-right the past two nights. I'm feelig mostly soreness on the left side or port side.
    Today was a little better. Glad to see from other posts that there is light at the ed of the tunnel and it gets better.
    Hang in there anf good luck!

    Well at least I'm not alone. I was starting to worry. Everyone so far is feeling normal right after surgery and I'm not. I've been walking around and I feel like crap lol. I just hope this wasn't a mistake

    I had surgery on 8/26 and I was feeling the same up until today. What has helped me a lot is weaning off my Percocet - I'm now on just Tylenol and my head feels so much clearer. Also figuring out some real foods I could have on the liquid diet, instead of the fake sweet Protein shakes, and getting at least 40 grams in. So far my favorites have been refried Beans thinned with broth, heated with a bit of velveeta and salsa then blended. Also low fat small curd cottage cheese which my doc ok'ed for liquids. Tonight I'm having some Soup I bought from the grocery store deli, blended.
    Hang in there - it gets better eventually! I've also been sleeping on the couch and take 1 or 2 naps per day, and try to get out and walk twice a day.
