I'd be feeling really good right now. I have 5 days post op and have seen improvements each day. The gas is what is giving me the pain, not my incisions. I also had a hiatal hierna so that is causing some of the pain too. I know it will get better, I just keeping thinking how great I'd feel if I didn't have all of this pressure!!!

I'm feeling very hungry today too which tells me I am healing well and recovering well from surgery! How long will this gas pain linger?

I had my surgery on 3-1-12 and started feeling pretty good yesterday. I had my first post op exam today and have lost 15 lbs since surgery!! They scheduled me for my first fill in two weeks and said I can start eating mushy next week and soft the next just to chew chew chew and eat slowly. I'm super excited!

Ok, that is encouragin!! I can do a few more days:)

U can! I love that we can encourage one another
