Day two post-op. Just woke up a little bit ago. Slept much better last night than I had expected to. Had to have the loritab last night, its sooo NASTY but it helped me get a lot of rest. Feeling pretty good other than the gas pains that have settled in my left shoulder. If it weren't for that I would feel perfect. Will keep everyone posted. Time to get up and walk around a bit.

So how are you feeling now, are you still really bloated, I am. It seems the gas just does not want to move out. Other than that I feel good, not real hungry, still on broth & liquid, having some creamy potatoe or tomatoe today. I hate to say it but let me know about you gas? HaHaHa.

12 days post-op. Doing just fine. No problems with anything. On smooth diet but am eating some soft - well blended foods like hummus and chicken salad (more like pate consistency). But no problems. Go in for my first fill on October 10. I can't wait to begin a full fitness program, just walking right now. How are ou doing?

:hungry:Hi I am doing well, I am still doing liquid & moving to mushy foods this week. I made this great pot of vege stew with hamburger last night. It will be my first attempt at anything solid, but yet in a soup. When can we start that exercise routine? I am down 35 pounds since I started this process & need to start moving. I tried riding my exercise bike but sill hurt, I will try again today.

They told me I could begin walking as soon as I felt able and to just listen to my body and do what I could. I can begin weights and water aerobics 6wks post-op. I have been walking 2 - 3 miles everyday for the last week or so. SInce I have started my weight loss and stopped but my intake had not increased much. First fill is 10/9/07. When is yours?
