Did you have an open surgery or was it by laparoscope? Laparoscope Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I'll try it tonight. My mother is very overprotective and would freak out if she saw me sleeping on my incisions lol but I will talk to her Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I am almost two weeks out and am still on the liquid diet. I think I drink Water and crystal light way too fast as well as Protein shakes but I have noticed that when I drink the shakes too quick I get some discomfort. It would take me about 30 minutes to finish a shake rather than the recommended hour. Has anyone else dealt with this? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for everyone who commented I didn't see these comments until today but I did end up going to the ER yesterday they told me that everything looked good and it could just be because of the tissue underneath. I was told to drink Benadryl for itching. Once again I want to thank everyone for helping me figure out what was going on Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

On Monday Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am a week out and my incisions are red around the edges and they itch a lot. I don't know if it's the actually incision or if it's the stretch marks that I have on my belly that are dry causing them to itch. I haven't put cream on my belly because I was told not to. The incisions do not hurt. When I press on my stomach I feel no pain at all but I was wondering is this normal? Is it because they are healing? Has anyone else had this before. Please let me know Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

fresh out. the first couple for days were pretty hard i have to admit i cried because the pain was so strong. when i first started drinking liquids i was shocked about how easily they filled me up. yes i knew that would happen but knowing and experiencing are two very different things. as the days go by I'm drinking a pill every morning on an empty stomach to prevent ulcers and I'm chewing my Multivitamins everyday (Centrum vitamins) i am also drinking 3 Protein shakes a day and everything is going pretty well. i hope i keep recovering easily and i hope that anyone else that is at the same point as i am has a speedy recovery as well

Thank you everyone for the support. It really put a smile on my face. You guys are the best but I'm going to head to bed before I stress myself out even more. ❤️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

so my surgery is tomorrow and I have to be at the hospital at 9:30am. I am so nervous but I know that is normal because it is a big surgery but I'm praying that all goes well..earlier today I was questioning if this is really what I want to do but I know that's my inner fat girl trying to hold on but I know I am ready, has anyone else felt that way the day before surgery? and I will keep everyone updated. congratulations to everyone else getting the surgery tomorrow. good luck
