Had my op yesterday. Apart from the horrible nausea coming out of anesthesia I have been pleasantly surprised. It doesn't really hurt to sit up or move around in bed despite the 5 incisions.

chicken broth has never tasted so good! Spent most of yesterday either NPO or sipping watered down Gatorade.

All in all - everything is going good. Looking forward to my new healthier self! Thanks for the support November buddies.

Good luck on your new adventure and the new you!

Congratulations and welcome to the loser's bench!

Congrats! So glad you aren't sore and you're feeling well. I felt the same way about the broth. :-)

I had my surgery on Nov 20th too. Feeling really good. Minor incision discomfort, no nausea and a little gas. Am up working around, showering and preparing full liquid meals. Trying to getting in as much Protein as possible and lots of fluids. I feel like I've read so much about this VSG journey...

Really enjoy this forum:) Were any of you told that it would be difficult to wear a bra after surgery? One of my incisions is right under bra line and I don't want to put any pressure on it. Also, I guess I'm still feeling kinda bloated. Let the losing begin:)))

I wore my bra..loser and placed a cushion under the band and incision..still using it now. Had mine nov 12. Good luck!!
