Finally Post Op
I'm so excited to finally be "Post Op"!! I had my surgery on Dec 20th and am doing well... besides having gas pains.... I had to be at the hospital for 5 am and my surgery was at 7:30. Everything went well, the surgeon said he had to repair a hiatal hernia I had no idea I had... I had an upper GI done a few hours after surgery just to make sure the band was in place... that was HORRIBLE!! I came so close to vomiting..I honestly have no idea how I didn't.. I guess God was with me!!! I was released from the hospital they day after and have been home for 3 days now.. Each day gets better as far as moving around and getting back into the routine on doing housework.
The post op diet is a struggle... I find myself having a hard time getting in everything I need to.... but as each day goes by it is getting easier. I just hope it doesn't get "too easy" and I find myself hungry before my first fill. I go for my post op visit with the surgeon on Jan. 3rd. I'm hoping to have lost some weight by then, but am unsure because I've seemed to have gained since the surgery... anyone else had this problem??? Could it just be from all the gas and fluids from the hospital??? I hoping to see a loss in a couple of days....
