Here I am suffering from these stupid gas pains! I must say that the surgery went much smoother than I thought it would. I was only in my hospital bed for 24 hours then back home I went. The only problem seems to be these gas pains. My incisions look perfect and I have no pain that requires "pain pills". I have only been sipping on water today since I was pretty nauseas yesterday so I couldn't drink much. Tomorrow I will introduce some protein, nutritionist said to try 2 ounces an hour with water every 15 minutes in between. I have only been able to get one ounce down at a time so far without feeling bloated so we will see. I have no desire to eat regular food yet so that's a positive! My husband has been so supportive and said to me tonight that he can't wait for me to be able to go to the gym with him. When we first met, I was the gym fanatic, he never worked out before that. All I am waiting for is the gas to go away!! Anyone have any ideas of how to make this subside quicker???

Walking supposedly helps with gas pain. Or you can try Gas-X strips.

I'm pre-op myself, so I'm really just sharing what I've read around these boards. :)

Hope it helps!

The pain hit me the night of my surgery; I thought my shoulder was dislocated somehow...walk, walk, and walk some more - even if it hurts like heck - walk...it does and will make the pains subside.

Thanks everyone! I am so tired today but I have been walking in circles! My husband actually ran out and bought me baby gas drops this morning and they seem to be helping a little bit. I just can't wait for this to go away!! Then I can focus on the positives :) I introduced protein today and that seems to be ok so far. I also made a bis mistake and drank ice cold water! That was pretty dumb :(

      Xbox And Exercise - Kickboxing

      By sharon232 · Posted

      I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
