Am I suppose to feel this good?



Recommended Posts

I was banded August 12th. I had a large hiatal hernia that was hiding, and fortunately was fixed. I had no problems walking after surgery, and even tried to river dance down the hospital corridor. I kicked my foot on the IV pole and that ended my dancing. (I don't know how to River Dance, I just improvised). I got home the next morning, slept most of the day, walked for 20 minutes and went to the grocery store. I have been great ever since. I have energy, and I'm not hungry! It's a miracle! I went to the Mall again today and a sales clerk asked me what I did to make my face look so fresh and glow. I wasn't wearing any make-up and heck, I'm 44, I almost laughed out loud and didn't know how to respond, it took me totally off guard. Lets see.....have surgery 5 days ago? I'm not sure how long this high will last, but I'm enjoying every second off it.

I felt really good after my op to! Just really calm and happy almost serene. I was sleepy, more uncomfortable than in pain as such. My friends all came to see me the day after and we went to the local pub for a drink (I had water) but still felt amazing! I am just really happy since I had it done, I was a touch miserable when I got my first fill it was just a touch to much in the band for me. But they took it out and now I am really happy again, weight is steadily coming off no complaints here! Long may your high continue! Have a good day

Congrats on doing so well!

I'm 4 weeks post op and someone at work mentioned that I was so happy and was wondering why. I just shrugged my shoulders bu think it's a combo between feeling good about myself and not feeling nauseated for the first time years which I contribute to having my hiatal hernia fixed.

That is so awesome to hear. I was also banded on the 12th and haven't been so lucky, I've felt pretty crummy. Looking forward to feeling like you in the next few days though!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
