4 days post op and feeling great!



Recommended Posts

Hello fellow bandsters!

I went in on last Thursday with my friend (Cucumber) and it went really well. Had a few sips of Water on Thursday and some sips of juice. Came home Friday, but mostly just slept on Thusrday and Friday.

Yesterday I started REALLY feeling hungry (after going back to work) so last night I had a can of cream of Tomato. Not in my diet, but I did it because I felt like I needed it. And guess what? It went down fine, and I felt full and didn't feel dizzy and brain-less like I was earlier in the day.

So now I am on the slimfast cans as I can't survive on broth and juice for 2 weeks NO WAY! I feel great, I am about 9-10 lbs down.... a little soreness at the port site.

But I feel MUCH better than I thought I was going to. So far, I feel like I have made a good decision. Mind you, I look at the food my family is eating and boy, does it look good! But of course, that's the whole point of the band, it "controls" me:smile2:.

Now, I just gotta take it day by day, and now thinking of the next "food".... mushies I guess? What will I eat?

Hope all the Sept bandsters are doing good!:smile:

Hiya,

I was banded 2 days ago on Saturday and im feeling rough today I was ok in hospital and stayed over night, i was even fine when i got home but last night the gas pain got intense. I am suffering with it today as the cuts are itchy and uncomfortable and i feel like a hot air balloon full of gas ready to explode lol but i am still happy because i chose this, i wanted this and i have done it. I too was feeling hungry so thought about deviating from my diet but was to scared too, ive been eating yoghurt for Breakfast and yoghurt for lunch but today have no appetite which is good i guess. Glad you are feeling so positive and having a good time of it so far x heres to us september bandsters xxx :smile:

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
