Whst kind of pain are you having? My surgery was on Monday, The only real pain I have is in my shoulders from the gas. Just keep moving.....

Sounds like everyone is doing good. I am 9 days post op and have had no trouble, just full liquids, Protein Shakes, soups, broth. Oh and Jello. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Today is the first day I actually know exactly what I took in. I set alarms to remind me when to eat and drink, I counted and recorded my calories and Protein. Ya'll just don't know how huge that is for me I made a plan and I stuck to it drank my Water, boiled some eggs, went to the gym, carried a lunch bag that contained my Protein shakes, Jerky, turkey sticks, string cheese, ect. Enjoyed a veggie burger with lettuce & Tomato for dinner. I did not get hungry between meals and I did not eat anything that I didn't plan to. This is my life I'm accountable and I'm finally taking control.

Different parts of your body heal at different rates. Are you sure you haven't pulled something? That left side takes awhile to heal because that is where they did the most tugging and pulling . If you are not able to get around because of the pain you should either call or go see your surgeon to make sure something else isn't wrong. Sometimes it could be your gallbladder .... if you haven't had it out already. Have you been nauseous too? If it were me I'd get it checked out. Increasing pain doesn't sound normal.

I just had my surgery 12/26/16. My stomach is making more noises today than anytime before. I think this is normal. Hang in there. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Mine was 12/21, my doctor gave me a nerve block that lasted 72 hours and that was wonderful. It made the 1 hour ride home ok and it allowed me to do a lot of walking. I can tell you that when it wears off it is like night and day now I move like a sloth ????. My doctor also had me bring all my meds with me so that he knew I had everything I needed for the next few weeks!

The bumps in the road are horrible so take a pillow that you can have pressed against your belly it will help some. Please make frequent stops to walk so no clots form.

12/19 here! See if the hospital will give you nausea and pain meds for the ride home instead of waiting for the pharmacy in your neighborhood. Riding in the car home was rough for me. All the bouncing. I didn't have one, but a support belt may be very helpful for the ride as well. Good luck!

8 hr drive?! Wow. Know what Soup broth you want & hv it stocked. You will be tired & make sure you take a few breaks while riding to walk around to better the soreness

Expect some pain the first few days. They don't really explain that well. But after a week or less you turn the corner. Walking helps. Also get a support or restraint belt for your stomach.
