I am 3 weeks post op and I am finding my self so tired all the time. if I let myself I could sleep all day. I also noticed that I am having pain in my kidny area almost every day.

that makes me so sad..... i love rice!

:biggrin::smile::thumbup:

I am having issues with the drinking while i eat thing. I didnt think it would be an issue at all. I HAVE TO DRINK WHILE I EAT. I have been taking little sips for now till i can break the habit but i am worried i wont be able to. :thumbup:

i am only 2 weeks post op and on mushies . I have noticed that every time i try to eat something other than " liquids" i get this feeling? Today it was scrambled egg.:biggrin:

Does the feeling of having a lump in my throat mean i ate some thing i shouldn't have?:biggrin:

I too am on purred foods and i have no idea what to eat besides eggs. I am not a big fan of tuna, so my question to you is what else do you eat? I am so tired of soup.

Today i start mushies! I feel so good! sometimes when i do to much i feel a little pain in my band area then i realize ohh-oh gotta take a brake. its tuff to "recover" with a 2 year old and a 4 year old taring apart my house. Laundry still needs to get done floor need to get moped..ect. I have not won the lottery yet so i have to do all that my self. I got on the scale this morning 223!!! (started at 245) I officially love my band. Hopefully i will love it even more when i can eat real food. I hate to vomit so right now my prayers include please lord never let me vomit.

Can you have protein shakes? That seems to ease my hunger. I also eat cream of chicken soup and egg drop soup they are both yummy and seem to fill me up too. Good luck!

The burping i was told is normal. I had the same thing...it will go away! Mine seem to be less and less everyday. I was banded 3/23. i still get a little pain in my port, i too have a two year old and it seem when i do to much it hurts more. Good luck to you!

Hi i am 8 days post op i have the same thing.. i asked my doctor at my appointment and was told it normal. Your body just has to get use to the band. i have noticed that everyday it gets a little better. Good Luck to you!

Good luck!

I cannot believe i have lost 13 lbs already! I guess not eating can do that for you! 1 week down and i am ready for mushies. I have 1 week left of liquids:mad2:. I have become a big fan of egg drop soup and cream of wheat. I cannot wait to go to the gym. Doc said not for another 3 weeks. till they walking and household chores will have to do!

i had surgery 3/23/10 i feel the same way. Hoping it gets better soon!

I had to be at the hospital at 6:30am.I waited and waited till around 11:30 before they were finally ready for me. (i almost walk out at leat 5 times) finally they got me all ready with nice tight socks an iv and a really cool gown that kept me warm and i was off to wait some more. they had me in the pre surgical waiting room for like another hour and a half. I must have cried the hold time i was there. Then finally my doctor came in to see me. He calmed me down a bit then off i went. The helped me to change beds in the or the all of a sudden i hear some one say goodnight and i was out! I remember waking up in a crazy amount of pain. They had to change my iv and couldnt get in it in fast enough i had woke up with no paid meds. Finally they got it in and i had pain relief. I had to stay in the recovery room for hours because they didnt have any rooms upstairs. Finally at around 6pm i got a room. I Did fine. No vomiting...ect.did my walking ect. I felt really good the next morning. walked again. Had a upper GI then i was released to go home. Now this is where i have run into some trouble. I feel like i have to burp really bad and cant. almost like indigestion. I have only had liquids. I am taking gas x but nothing. Is this normal? HELP!!!!!!!:blushing:

i am two days post op and i am having the same issue. I keep taking the gas x strips its it not working. I have only had clear liquids but i feel like i have a lump in my throat and i feel like i need to burp but cant.

so I came from the hospital to find out both my kids have the stomach flu. both are vomiting and have diareah. I don't know if its something I need to call and tell my doctor.

I just got home from surgery! I am banded! I never thought I would go through with it. I almost walked out of the hospital so many times. I some how got the courage to stay. I will write more about my experience later... right now I need a nap!
