I was banded October 1st and today I went out on my own. I went to my follow up appointment - doing very well - and then to a couple of stores. May have overdone it or am responding to the Dr. feeling my stomach but am quite sore this evening! Dr. told me I can have yogurt which was a surprise to me as I am only one week out of surgery. I had a yogurt tonite and it went down just fine. Still sleeping on sofa and taking a pain pill for night. Just want you to know it does get better and it isn't that far off....keep your eye on the prize!!! You'll be feeling great before you know it....take care!
