I had surgery on 4/19 and today I go get my stitches out and I’m returning to work tomorrow! I feel great having had a small hernia repair and my lap- band removed at the same time. I experienced very little pain, only taking Tylenol the first day home. My dr also prescribed gabapentin which helps with nerve pain. I think this made a huge difference. Yesterday I got to have hummus and cottage cheese so the food front is looking up! I stop eating but still haven’t felt that “ full” feeling yet, maybe when solid foods start? Being back at work will be great. At home I want to clean but not allowed to lift anything.

Hope everyone is doing well!

I had surgery yesterday morning. I was up and walking in the evening. Last night only required Tylenol and have had nothing today. It’s not really “pain” but more tenderness/discomfort , at least for me😊 hope all goes well for those with upcoming surgeries

i'm scheduled for April 19th for a lap band removal and a gastric bypass. It doesn't feel real to me yet. i have so much stress at work and home right now. i start my liquid diet tomorrow... 7 days out.

I have hypothyroidism and pcos . i am scheduled to have gastric bypass with lapband removal april 19. i recently was on weight watchers for a YEAR and lost 5lbs.! hypothyroidism was definitely a motivating factor for me to have the surgery.
