  1. Thank you Grammy. Right now I am on the downside of the whole process!!!!
  2. when will the pain subside???? when can I potty? hurts to move,walk, turn in bed. I have to hold my stomach and put pressure on it in order to move. walking circles inside the house.. Hopefully, I will look back and consider this a piece of cake but right now I am second guessing my surgery. 5th day on liquids and I am very weak. Any tips would be appreciated. than you friends!!!!xo
  3. # days post op and I am 5# heavier! WT.....??? I am guessing it's gas still trapped in and not moving. Even though I am walking a lot and getting up and moving around. I am on all clear liquids right now and can add protein drinks tomorrow! YIPPIE!!!!
