3 Days Post-Op

Wow, I am 3 days Post Op and I feel great. I am really amazed that I have had very few of the issues that some are reporting. The day of surgery I was a little sore. Day 2 I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach but no worse than that. I also went out for a walk. Today the only residual pain I have is from one of the surgery slits and that just feels like a typical cut.

I am very happy with my early surgery results. I am down 20 pounds thanks to the Pre-Op diet. (I started at 335 and the day of surgery I was 315.) I am looking forward to my first follow-up with my doctor and look forward to the fill process.

As for Post-Op drinks and such I haven't had any issues keeping things down or getting my Protein shakes down. I am looking forward to mushy foods... Bring it on!

Much success to everyone on this journey.

I too had anticipated a lot of pain, after reading for the past 6 or months, my pain never went above a 2/10! Very happy with everything so far! Good luck to you
