marcar... i didnt have any issues post op either.. i felt a little aching around the shoulders the next day.. but thats it... i slept alot the first 2 days post op.. and when i was awake i did a couple laps around the house.. and i wasnt in terrible pain either... altho hiccups hurt like hell... for close to a month actually.. but that was my only complaint lol... my little furball lhasa Chubby didnt leave my side post op either... smart little thing.. he knew he couldnt get on my stomache but would lie across my legs... even went looking for me when he came back from outside and i wasnt on the couch where hed left me

I dont want to say i "started" early cause it was really only a day or 2 before i was suposed to start solids. ( i had a baby shower to go to - didnt want to answer any nosy questions) but i did try the odd soft thing here and there in the pureed stage and chewed vigorously... mainly cause i was climbing the walls.. but also cause i felt i could be a bit bad without doing myself any harm

I've had 2 fills my 3rd is this comming friday... I am quite sure I need another one im at 5 1/2 ccs in a 9 cc band and I am quite restricted... not so much with liquids but definitely with solids... but what ive noticed.. regardless of texture, consistancy or temperature... i do fine the odd day when i can eat a fair amount more than i can the majority of the time... is anyone else experiencing this? or is it just me?

yep... burping all the time... and unfortunately it comes out the other end quite a bit too.... its all worth it in the end i think lol

Congrats :welldoneclap: How are you doing post op? not too much shoulder pain i hope? I was bouncing off the walls about 4 or 5 days after surgery and i had lost 10 lbs already... it didnt occur to me that it was because i was only taking in Clear Liquids... but again i didnt really care.. i had lost 10 lbs and i hadnt even tried to

ah that makes sense... i do notice that in the morning i cant eat much at all and by evening a very mini meal... but what had made me kinda wonder is that yesterday right from morning tilll evening i could eat almost twice what i normally can on most days

sorry missed a word... i am quite sure i DONT need another fill ... another tick in the blonde moment column

I did my own research and read anything i could get my hands on about the surgery and so on.. and i have a client who had gastric bypass done.. so i had a lot of questions answered by her.... and when i asked my family doctor.. the tool that he is told me that there arent many resources for it in ontario and sent me to a dietician... so i went about it on my own.. and i still havent been to the doctor since so he still doesnt know that ive done it

I personally lived in a satin night gown for the first 5 days after surgery... and if i had to actually get dressed i was in loose jogging pants and a t shirt... Hi btw.. im new to lbt
