How soon after surgery

How soon after surgery did you feel 'normal'? I know its different for everyone, but I had surgery on the 26th and as of today (the 31st) I feel totally fine- other than having a very sore tummy. I havent had any instances of nausea, PB'ing, vomiting- nothing! Ive been really watching my calories and quantities of foods and just started taking my Multi-vitamin, B Complex and Iron today and I still feel fine. Today's the first day Ive felt hungry after eating my delicious 1/2 cup of blenderized food. I had a bit of mushed up chicken around lunch time and it didnt bother my stomach at all. Ive been drinking my protein shakes/smoothies and my calories are under 700 a day. Im just a bit concerned that im not having any problems (does that seem weird?)

Be thankful....be very thankful

I am thankful :rolleyes2: I guess im just wondering if thats how im supposed to be feeling. Ive read about so many people experiencing trouble right away and it makes me worry a bit.

I was banded on 7.28.10 and I haven't had any complications either. I have a lot of pain still just a few days out, but I haven't had any vomiting or other issues myself. I too have been surprised, but thankful for no complications :rolleyes2:

I was banded on the 8/1, which was just this past Monday and haven't had any complications. The only "proof" of the surgery is a sore tummy and the insicions. I am mostly very thankful that there have been no complications and certainly don't want to jinx it, but occasionally I do wonder if nothing being wrong means something is wrong. LOL Now that I see that in black and white it makes no sense.

I am babying the band, still blenderizing everything so I haven't chunks yet. I am very much looking forward to mushy foods because Jello, belderized soup and shakes are getting a little old.
