Hi there. I am 5 days post op and have some crazy bruising going on around the incision sites. I do bruise easily but wondering if anyone else has this?

Good evening. I was banded today!!! Very smooth procedure. In for 8:20 and left around 1. I am feeling great. Little of that left shoulder pain and if I move too fast I feel it. But generally I it's gone great. I truly believe that being faithful in my pre-op diet was key. I dropped 26 lbs in two weeks. So now the next phase begins. I seriously feel I changed my life today!! And I'm worth it!! -
I am on day 9 of 14. I have 3 protein shakes per day and 250 calories of low glycemic veggies. I haven't seen a lot of pre op diets like mine. I'm in Canada and not sure if it's done a bit different here. Day 3 I was in tears and ready to call it all off. I had great support from my husband and the clinic. I stuck with it and it is so much better now. I'm down 21 lbs too! Surgery is on Friday so I'm in the home stretch. But you are not alone. I'm proud to say I haven't cheated once. Makes me feel line I can do this!!

I am starting my pre-op diet tomorrow. I am probably more nervous about that than the surgery itself! -
Best of luck! My turn two weeks from Friday.
