Pillows under knees and in between knees helped me a lot.

I slept on couch for the first few days then had to go into bed, couch wasn't comfy at all. I kind of slept on side and curled up with pillows as long as I took pain pills before bed I was fine till morning. It's the rolling over and forgetting that kicked my butt. My neighbor had the same surgery and slept in recliner for weeks.

I still go back and forth from sofa to bed and it has been a month. My body pillow is my best friend she follows me no matter where I sleep . I am thinking of giving her a name. Haha

After reading all these posts I'm glad I bought a new recliner for my office LOL WE have them in the livingroom but, it's noisy out there. I'd never sleep, my dogs would keep me up. At least in the office I can shut the door so if everyone else is up, I can still sleep if needed.

When I first had the lap band I slept in the recliner now that I'm going with the bypass I let my husband know I may be sleeping on the recliner.

I slept in my stomach in the beginning. I did this because back in the day when I was a paramedic they used to tell us to lay the person on the injured side because the pressure relieves the pain. And sure enough I slept like a baby! No pain or nothing til I rolled over. As long a I was flat on my stomach I was fine...just the rolling over part that was awful

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
