Day-3 Post Op

Well here I am on day three post op. I said I would keep everyone posted on my progress. It hasnt been bad at all. I am sleepy a lot but that is probably the meds and no food. Yesterday I could barely get 2 bottles of water down. Today I get to start full liquids but only 2 oz, at a time. I woke up this morning and the minute I stood up I thought I was gonna throw up. I just kept swallowing and it passed. I gotthe nausea meds immediately. I have had the feeling about 4 times this morning. So that is about the worst that has happened so far. Gas hasnt been bad at all, but I have been walking a lot and my hubby has been tapping my back and that seems to help a lot. So my journey is starting out on the plus side. I will keep everyone informed on my journey. Good Luck to all future and existing bandsters.

I'm on day three as well. I haven't had any nausea but the incisional pain is way worse then I thought it would be. I've been keeping up on my pain medication to try .and stay in front of the pain. So far I haven't felt hungry but I think that's the pain. Good luck!!

Day 3 for me as well. No nausea, but sore at the port site and sore neck. I started back on protein shakes yesterday and that's going well. I am making 1/2 serving. Seems just the right amount. Good luck everyone.

Dinda I have not been hungry at all. I am eating 2 oz or blended cottage cheese just to put some substance in my body. I have felt really tired today and I think that is because of being on just clear liquids. My pain is very minimal. The only thing that hurts is when I take a deep breath. Walking seems to help that. I got to start full liquids today so I also had a protein shake that took me 5 hours to drink. So just taking it slow so I dont have any setbacks. I have absolutely no regrets for having this done.

We are all so different. I can drink the 1/2 protein drink right down no restriction. I wish I had some.
