Putting it all out there...
MrsHumphrey's I didnt read the whole thread and have just been lurking around on the boards... but I wanted to say that I to have been feeling kinda how you just described. I am almost 2 weeks post op... I was a bit gaseous earlier but its getting better. I have been kinda tasting here and there... but being very very very cautious.. I mean its a nibble here and there... I had my post op appt yesterday and my doc was very happy with where i am at... Dont worry!!! Everyone is different and we all handle things different. I wish you the best on your journey!!

I am banded!!!
Thanks everyone!! Your 100% correct on the walking for the gas! I have been going out when I can and walking around my apartment. Looking for reasons to move and not sit! It does help. The gas-x is working a bit to.. I will try the heating pad and maybe the bean-o. Thanks all! I am taking pics every 2-3 days and keeping my journal. My husband bought be me this beautiful leather journal - so I have been writing in that. Your all so right this is as an amazing feeling!!! The pain, the emotion everything!!! I am so blessed to have a great support family here and in my everyday life. It makes such a difference! I look forward to being on more frequently here as I said before and will share pics soon.
