3 Days Post Op.....

[Deleted Profile 87]

Started phase 2 diet today and it has made me feel so much better! I had some mashed potatoes and sugar free pudding today. So glad to be off strictly liquids!

So happy for you Chris!! I made black bean Soup last night that was amazing!!!! It was the first thing that made me ok with the purée stage.

I agree Jam2. So full of gas that it makes it difficult to take anything in!

I'm 18 days post op and the last couple of days I am experiencing a lot of pain at my large incision. Anyone else experiencing this?

I am 14 days out and suddenly today I am also having incision pain at my large incision next to my tummy button. I'm not sure why, but wondering if maybe I've been overdoing things.

At 7 days out, I was feeling so great that I decided to get a job at a local hair salon ( I'm a hairstylist). Anyway, I got the job and this week I have worked two 3 hour shifts and tomorrow and the next day I have to work 6 hours each day. I think I may have taken on too much, but I'd be embarrassed to quit.

Have you been overdoing it? Or maybe this is normal?

I went back to work 10days post op and have 3 small children. So yes, I think I did overdo it. I feel much better now!

I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one whinger as though my tummy wasn't removed. I feel hungry after I eat . I'm on a liquid only diet , started my Protein shakes yesterday and nothing gets me full. I can tolerate anything but Water , some reason I can't drink Water without getting sick . Is it hunger pains that's growling in my stomach or am I mistaking . And OMG if this bit itching doesn't stop. I itch so bad at my belly button. I known can't scratch it causes infection but it's killing me
