Hello There,

I was banded around 9:30 on April 12th. Things happened the way everyone described. I was ready to go home by 9:00 am this morning. I took a bath, some medicine and took a tall cup of apple juice to bed with me. I am still on full liquids because my band is snug due to swelling. I will be able to slowly move on to stage 3 of my diet by Saturday. I feel some soreness at the incision sight, but nothing unbearable. Can't wait to feel 100%. Walked up and down the stars a few times and that was helpful. Oh yeah, I did take two gas-x chewable tablets earlier and have not been too sick as of yet.

I was banded Tuesday and now that it is Sunday my stomach is finally retreating. I knew I was bloated, but I kept it to myself. I kept thinking dear Lord am I pregnant and did they miss the baby? Needless to say I had a few moments of the gas easing out last evening-no it was not violent and tummy is going down. I hope that this is not tmi, but I have had my firs b-movement since surgery this morning. I was not too worried about it because I was on clear liquids 10 days pre-op through to yesterday. The tightness around the repaired hernia is gone. I am so happy and blessed.

We are tracking the same. Only I have had a case a diahrrea all day. Yuck! My belly is slowly going down, but I have no complaints here.

I woke up feeling a lot better this morning.
