Hello
I am so proud to be a part of the a-MAY-zing bandster, I thought that was so cute! I went to the Doctors today for my post op, I lost 10 lbs. I am so happy!!! I lost 6 lbs before surgery, so my total is 16 lbs that "I LOST" :omg: I am so happy, I have NEVER lost this much weight before. I am glowing today! Everything is good with my healing as well. I pray that everyone is doing good also!
Crabcake and Lodum,
Thanks for the advise, I was able to sleep on my side for a couple of hours, I can not wait to sleep comfortable. About 3:00 am I got in a recliner and slept good that way. How are you doing with the band? Did you have your post op appointment yet?
JerseyDori,
I had a simular experience like you, my Mom helped me too. I was in so much pain and was trying to figure out how come everyone else was able to manage the pain. I had so much pain meds that I slept almost the complete day of my surgery and most of the next. I had to call the hospital where I had surgery and ask them what was going on. I was short of breath and had pressure all over... thats what it felt like and sit down forget about it, did not work with me. To get up and down was so hard and painful. The hospital told me to take Gas X and use a heating pad. Thank GOD for those two. It has helped so much, I know how you feel. I wish I could had been like everyone else. Everyday gets better and its all going to be worth it in the end. I will keep you in my prayers.
