I starting my journey as of today. The challenge for me is getting up and down of my bed and getting a diet plan together

Today is my 2nd day after surgery. I'm still having a lot of trouble getting in and out of bed. I'm definitely finding easier ways of doing it, but there still feels like a lot of pulling on my stomach. You should try Lapband.com they have some really good recipes, though to be honest, I haven't felt like eating anything yet.

hi congrads i had lapband done jan 12 2012 i know how you feel your stomach will always feel like pulling..mine still does now~~~JUST GO SLOW AND TRY NOT TO LIFT HEAVEY THINGS EITHER....I STAYED IN hospital for 2 days cause my oxygen level was low....but the day i had surgery i was up and walking.....i losy 42 lbs now in 7 weeks today..it was worth it i wish i had it done yrs ago..i would be thin now...good luck to you!!

You just have to take it slow. It was painful to get up and out of bed for me as well. It will get easier... Good luck to you!
