Surgery went well. Came home this past friday. Haven't been feeling too great since then. Constant pain in my chest when I sip something. One incision on my right side hurts like hell. So I cant really bend.

I feel bad because I told her I would bounce back quickly when I got home.

So glad your surgery went well!! Try drinking room temperature drinks. Water, Protein Shake, etc. Warm broth too. Warmer liquids don't seem to give that chest pain as much.

The incision on your right side is probably the one they removed your stomach from. My upper right incision actually hurt so bad about a week and a half after surgery that I went to my surgeon's office to have them check it out. I was worried I messed up something internally. They said it's normal and just the muscle repairing itself and it will be the most sore.

Don't feel bad for taking the appropriate time needed to recover. It's better you take the time now needed to get better rather than rush things and end up hurting yourself and not having a choice.

Best of luck on your weight loss journey and I hope your wife starts being more supportive! I've been very fortunate that my fiance has supported my decision.
