My surgery was performed on Wednesday and I was home the next day. I have found that I cannot eat popsicles because the super cold liquid hurts my tummy. So far, the Protein drinks are ok ... As long as I let them warm up a bit and drink them slow but they tend to give me gas. Lol. I walk a bit around my house, but I have a tendency to try to do too much so I haven't gone outside to walk yet. I'm excited to see where I go from here. I'm also happy to have found a support site like this! Sent from my phone with help from space

So today I found a tank top that is kind of like a body shaper, support but not like it's trying to make you two sizes smaller. Anyway, I put it on and immediately my incision site felt so much better. No more dull, hollow ache or occasional sharp pain. Has anyone tried wearing one of these after surgery with good results or has anyone else ever done this? Post op Day 8. Sent from my phone with help from space

I am 6 days post op and my main incision still hurts. I still have to take a hydrocodone to take the edge off ... it doesn't look infected, it actually looks great but it stings and hurts once the meds wear off ... anyone else have this problem? I have a Dr appointment tomorrow so if I should be concerned I can bring it up. Sent from my phone with help from space

Yes. When I wake up and have to get up is when it hurts the most. At least I know someone else had the same. Sent from my phone with help from space

Congratulations! Just FYI, liquids room temp or warmer are much easier on the tummy! Sent from my phone with help from space

My first visit with the surgeon was in December 2015, I received approval from my insurance company in March and had my surgery April 6. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337Z using the BariatricPal App
