How soon after surgery



Recommended Posts

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?)

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.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
