Today I have hurt alot more than expected. I may have overdone it walking though, took two walks one of about 200 yards and the other about 1/4-1/3 of a mile. I have been sipping on the same bottle of water since 5 am and it is now after 5pm. I am having to take pain meds about every 4-6 hours and alternating liquid lortab and liquid tylenol. Thankfully I have had no nausea just a strong desire to burp and a couple of hiccups that were terribly painful. I have lost a little over 10 pounds since last week.

cdt- 10 lbs. in a week. That's great! I've read the hiccups are bad. Take it easy...1/4 mile sounds like a lot for day 2 and you had a second walk? One bottle of water doesn't sound like enough to keep hydrated, but I'm pre-band. Maybe check with your Dr. or the post-band forum on that one. Rest yourself and hope you're feeling better soon!

Do you have a high energy level?

Please don't over do it...

When was your surgery? Is losing 10lbs typical? So far, how much have you lost?

What is your diet?

If you are hurting take your lortab every 4 hours. If you are alternating be sure to alternate them every 4 hours. Remember lortab has tylenol in it too...I don't want you to get too much. Just something to keep in mind. Take care. You'll start to feel much better very soon!

The weight loss is from the date of pre-op appointment to now, not from day of surgery. Walking the distance I did was definately TOO far and have not tried to walk that far since.
