:crying: Super happy I found you guys. I had my surgery on 9/10. I was and for the most part still am feeling great. I took one of my normal meds this morning that I always used to take before surgery. It did not like that my tummy was empty and it made me heave and throw up okay that is a lie since we don't seem to be able to throw-up at this point. As of today I am soooo hungry. Cream of Tomato Soup and some icecream just is not cutting it. i need food damn it!!!!!! Now for my real question. Is it normal for us to have the same that we put in our front end to come out the backend if you catch my drift?

I had surgery this past Friday and I am feeling great. Not 100% but pretty darn good. If this gas would leave I would be 100%. I have been off of my script pain killers since Saturday pm. I have been using tylenol or advil only as needed and that really is not that much. A good friend who has had LapBand gave me some liquid ideas that I am very greatful for. Icecream, sherbert, and cream of Broccoli soup from Panera through the blender and then strained. I am so happy to be able to eat something that my mouth likes. Now keep in mind I have not been able to do huge amounts of any of this but 1 TBLS here and a 1/4 cup there and I am not hungry, nor am I in pain or ready to kill the inventor of Chicken Broth! I know we can all do this together!!!

I am day 2 post op and the gas is killing me. I wretch and then bring up a big old burp. Any words of wisdom for how to get rid of the gas. I am so restless and can't get comfortable.

I go in at 7:30am central time tommrrow! I am so excited and nervous all at the same time. Surgery is scheduled for 9:30! Here I come bandland!!!! Smiles, Jamie
