Post surgery update

I had my lap band inserted on July 20th 2011 at around 2pm and was up walking around by 7pm! I refused to use a bed pan and trusted I had the energy to get up and be mobile I had a pain relief injection the first night to help me sleep and the next morning I was up and showering with tolerable pain. I tidied my hospital room and made my own bed, because it seemed the nurses were run off their feet! I felt quite good I was discharged on the 22nd after my barium swallow xray test was good. I've been sipping decaffinated coffee with a teaspoon and eating vanilla yoghurt (takes me about 30-45 minutes to eat a 150 gram tub but I feel full and content. I am having trouble with bowels and have had a laxative but to no avail I will be purchasing some metamucil fibresure today along with a multivitamin and iron supplements. I slept in my own bed last night and managed to sleep on my side with minimal pain so that was great for me I weighed 101.3kg pre-op and yesterday weighed 99.3kg and this morning I weighed 98.3kg! So Im feeling very positive about things to come.
