3Rd Day With Band
rebirth198 replied to latisanava's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on day three too. I'm down 10lbs! Unbelievable. I'm eating thicker liquids with mo problem loving the 35 g protein ensure. I'm much more hungry today and thsts good because I didn't eating yesterday. The chest pain is the worst. Walked for an hr with no relief. But pain meds help. Panera bread broccoli cheese soup has been a good friend too. Lol think I'll have some now! Hungry again! -
The fluids go down ok it just causes has pain ony chest. As far as I can tell I'm not dehydrated. Thanks for the advice. O look forward to being able to leave the house tommorrow.

So far walking does nothing for my gas pain. Lying still seems to help. I really just need one good burp! My abs are sire but not unbearable. I look forward to day 5. Maybe by then the haas in my chest will be gone. I couldn't eat that much today did anyone else have this problem? I know we need water but I've been working on the same water bottle all day.

Have you tried sleeping in a chair/recliner? It has helped me rest. I'm still fill of had pain on my chest though.

I have no regrets. Don't panic. I found that praying and singing to myself calmed me down. After all God wouldn't bring you this far to leave you. Have a talk with Him. Fear and faith cannot co habitate. Just think of what you will be able to do afterwards.

Are You Going To Tell Anyone About Your Surgery???
rebirth198 replied to Lola Granola's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have chosen to only tell a few supportive people. I told everyone else I had" lady part" surgery. Since everyone knows and is waiting for me to haver first baby, ultimately future pregnacy plans are a part of mt decision. I just didn't think people would get that thus choice wasn't about vanity. I just want to be a better me. it's no ones business what steps I take todos me happy. -

Love yourself for every change. Make it fun. Find ways to see your beauty at every milestone. It helps to appreciate the process. Plus you'll always think your hot;) -
My hospital experience was great too. I cried until I was put to sleep and the team did all but hug me beforehand. I really made me feel better. They even prayed with me! Big ups to St. James hospital;)
