Im a bandster!!!

  • Popular Post

I was banded this morning and I'm home resting now! Feeling sore and tired but not NEARLY as bad as I thought I was going to feel! This is nothing compared to my c-sections...at least so far.

I'm a little hungry but not starving, so far so good! So happy to have made it to this point and so excited for what's to come!

I had mine done yesterday. And I thought it was much worse then I expected. But I have never had abdominal surgery before. I just told someone I don't know how women make it thru a c-section if I feel this bad after a little 2 inch cut. I still have no real appetite.

I don't have an appetite either which is awesome. My mouth is super dry so I'm just sipping on crystal light! And it will get better! The c sections were tough but seriously prepared me for this! Give it two days...every day you will move a little easier and sleep better. Good luck and keep your eye on the prize!

I had my surgery in may and it was alot worse than I expected and I've had several surgeries though none abdominal. Though I will admit tht my back was out at the time and it was hard to get around with both my new incisions and my bad back. It took me about 4 days to start feeling pretty good. No I cant tell I've had surgery.
