Sitting here sipping my protein drink on my 4th post op day. Feeling less pain, less gas and more human. Zero hunger and feel like I am getting some energy back. I am so glad I did this surgery and so thankful that all my new friends that have been banded this week are doing wel!!! Can't wait to see how we are all doing at Christmas!!!!

I m not able to drink much or eat much. Tried to eat some applesauce but only ate about 5 teaspoons n I was full. I m not hungry either. Tired of chicken broth hate the beef broth so I m trying some pudding today. Love the Popsicles even though half is all I can do if a single Popsicles not the twinsies like we used to have as kids.

I m thankful we all made it thru our procedures with no complications and we are feeling better as the days go on. I m planning to go back to work on Wednesday but we'll c. How about u? Others when are u back at work?

I took two weeks off from work. I was banded Monday July 1 and returned to work earlier than anticipated in a reduced schedule and started in July 10. I took it easy Tried not to lift anything to heavy and lighten my therapy bag only bringing a few items to work it. Take it easy and remember to drink your water and I packed my meals because I do home based therapy and travel from patient to patient good luck

I am going back Monday fir a half day. I will work all week but not 49 hours. I have a desk job and lots of support and assistance at work.
