Tomorrow will be 1-week Post-op

I feel great!

I have so much energy! Tomorrow will be the official 1 week post op date, and so far I have lost 15lbs!

The first few days after surgery, I was very depressed due to the gas pain. I didn't have shoulder pain, but I would almost do this silent burp, and all that would happen would be a sharp pain deep inside.

I have not felt hunger since the night before surgery, and this absolutely blows my mind! I already have some restriction as my surgeon leaves about 2-3ccs in the band during surgery.

Life is good! This is the best decision I have ever made!

Good for you Meg. I'm 3 weeks post op. I too was surprised at all the energy I had after healing despite how little I was actually taking in. It's an amazing feeling. I also felt restriction immediately but the more I healed and less swollen my stomach was the less I had. You may not have that issue. I go for my first fill next week (thursday). I hope I hit my sweet spot fairly quickly. Good luck to you on your journey!

YAY Congrats!!! I was 1 week post op Monday and I feel great... I also have lost 15 lbs in one week and am amazed, but a little worried once I start eating i will gain it back, just like every other diet I have been on....The dr said that its possible I might but probably not so we shall see... So happy for you keep up the good work!!!
