Mrs.Harkness

Tried fish yesterday(salmon) and omg it was the worst choice I've made since surgery after a few bites I felt like I had just had a greasy hamburger and was full but then it seem like it was stuck in my throat and esophagus. I managed to drink a Lil water and went to bed woke up this morning and I still feel like somethings in my throat. I'm just gone stick with my cottage cheese, scrambled eggs and cream of wheat. I'm scared to try anything else. I don't like this feeling at all.

Thank you

Went for my first post op visit yesterday. (Surgery was on the 19th of feb) They removed my bandages and everything looks good. I'm down 38lbs and I can have soft pureed foods like eggs, and fish. I feel good. I go back to work in two more weeks. That's what I'm not looking forward too. Lol

Thank you. I'm feeling a Lil better.

Thank U guys. For a minute there I thought I was going coocoo. Lol. It's almost like being pregnant again.

I'm still on full liquids. However I had enough of these bariatric fusion drinks. All I wanna do is drink water and even my yogurt and cottage cheese taste funny. What's wrong with me?

OMG! The weather was do nice yesterday. I decided to take a walk by the water. Then I went to the mall to walk around. My left side hurts like hell.

Wonderful. May you have a speedy recovery.

Just went on my first mall walk since surgery. I'm only a week and a day out. I'm a Lil soar but I feel good.

Congrats!!!

Hey guys. Every morning I get up I weigh myself. And it appears that I loose a pound a day . Is this normal for anyone else? I mean I love it but is it coming off to fast?

I just took it one day at a time. Each day gets a little easier. You can use gas x for the gas pains and walk around as much as you can. Trust me it will get better.

The first two days r hard. But just hang in there. You don't want to become dehydrated. I'm one week out today and I'm still not 100% it's a process. You'll be fine.

Good morning all. This time last Wednesday I was being prep for sur g ery. So many things were going thru my mind. But thank God I'm here at home 30 lbs lighter(including the 10 day liver reduction diet) and recovering well. Left side still a little uncomfortable but I'm progressing very well. So far I feel like this is the best life changing decision I've made. Congrats to all who decided to join the losers bench.

Anyone having gas pains? And still experiencing mild pressure on the left side. Still hurts to move around, laugh, cough. Want to call doctor but don't wanna be a baby. It's only been 5days

Good day all. I had my procedure done Wednesday. I'm feeling pretty good. Haven't used any pain med since yesterday. However I'm still using my pillow as my crutch on the left side. It's getting better each day. I've been sleeping on the couch. But tonight I'm gonna try to sleep in my bed. I'm still tolerating my liquids fine but I must say if I sip another can of broth I'm a vomit. Lol

No. I didnt. I thought that was only for the lap band.

Hang in there we can do it!!

Hey guys. Feeling ok. But still very sore. I took a shower fine and been moving around the house much as I can. Been using my pillow. I'm still on liquids but I'm cool with that cuz I get full so quickly.

Glad you're home. I came home friday. Still soar as hell. But taking it slow

Feeling better than the day of. Still sore but that's to be expected. Just saw my doc he's sending me home today. I'm tolerating my liquids fine, mild heart burn but nothing I can't handle.

Still so soar but it's only been 24hrs. Just taking deep breaths and using my cough pillow.

Surgery went well. Still In A Lot Of pain. But I'm able to walk around every so often. Don't have much of an appetite. But I'm taking it one day at a time. It's only been 24hrs. Thank you guys for all the prayer and best wishes.

On my way to the hospital...........
