I’m 9 days post op and I still sleep on my recliner ... when i have to get up quickly due to that muscle tension .. is faster. I sleep in my bed for a nap and pain wakes me up.

Hmm if I have to say would be day 5 or 6 I have this pain near my boobs, from what I’ve read is muscle pain.. is crazy .. sometimes I can’t move left or right . If I cough, laugh or any sudden movement to my chest area is painful. I still have it, I’m 9 days post-op but is not as bad as it was those days.

Love them! And great job!

We are blessed by your support and friendship too. I’m doing much better thank God. Still this weird pain near my ribs .. but the rest is pretty good. I don’t like the idea of no pooping everyday. And now cold water is my best friend.

You have all your rights to feel that way.. i would and even worse. Is not easy to be told not now .. but later .. after all plans. To me you are very strong, cuz I would’ve left this site and anything that would set my heart in pain. Just know when your turn comes we will be here with you too. To congratulate and tell you that “this and that” is normal.

Wow that’s An amazing story. Kudos for you and your desire for success. Congrats girl.

Wow that’s how you know every doctor is different I had bypass but my sis in law had sleeve she needs to do one Month of liquid. I’m only two weeks. But the purpose is for the good healing and to pretty much introduce your new belly into food. Also about mash potatoes NUT said is not good until 6 months cuz of the starch. I also didn’t see you mention how much protein shakes you drinking since you only eat twice, maybe that’s what’s missing.

I drink mine with Snapple juice .. crushes mixed with a lil Snapple ( diet) juice and shot it down.. I soon as i do take anew shot of Snapple .. and I’m good .. you will still taste the yuckyness but not as bad with water or for a long time

Weren’t you put in a clear liquid diet?

You look amazing ! And don’t let the scale tell you how you look, if you feel amazing .. than you are. Congrats !

My sis in law felt sick with the choco.. i don’t like the after taste , so i mixed with the vanilla premier and problem solve, taste so much Betta and it doesn’t give me that weird after taste. If vanilla is done .. i use strawberry cream premier .

I see. Thank you. My surgery buddy and I have been suffering this pain... and we were wondering about it. I’ll start wearing the garment more it kinda helps.. but then it feels heavy on my belly. Strange.

Forgot to ask you , how long did it last to you?

Congrats ! You doing amazing!

Best of luck!!!!

Ohhhhhhhh... thank you for the information! I’ve been wondering what is this annoyance coming from. Thank you for such great info.

I did mines at Bellevue Hospital. How is your process ?

Premier caramel.

Hmmmm .... learning from all this comments , I’ve been getting pain.. but never on my incision.

oh that is very nice of him, I heard some surgeons are as hard as rock in feelings. Mines was very caring and personally amigable. why only Tylenol ? They gave me a stronger med .. I have to smashed tho and it taste like hell. I gotta sippy down with diet Snapple. But it works. I’m gonna make a thread now about a new pain to see if it is normal. Hope ya can help me. Thank you, I’m happy I made the choice. Thank you ! I’m glad to be part of the team for a better future! : )

Lordy .. this hurts ... yes I’ll be honest when I woke up in the OR ... boy .. good thing my doc is extremely hot ... cuz damn.... anywho.. after meds and a rest here and there .. much better .. love my night nurses .. they so nice. My throat is dry as a desert and my belly is made of hearts. Never got weight in. [emoji58] forgot to do it too. Here are some photos. Hope my November’s are doing great too!

To be honest walking and warm tea.

Now the new problem ... I’m still at the hospital , my surgery was nov 28.. finished around 6pm. So all this time I ha e not pass gas, so I can’t go home! [emoji31] is there any tip.. other than walking .. I’m a pro at walking, you wouldn’t believe I had surgery. I drink my water like normal , scares me a bit. Rubbed my belly and even slept side way. What now.. ? Today is the 1st of December I wanna go home is almost 3am.. had a walk and drank some protein. Pee is fine btw.

Thank you! I made it tho.. walking and sitting in the toilet.. no gas on the bed at all . I try both and nothing just walking and sitting in the toilet.. I felt like “that” area is alive again . Weird I know.. but before I couldn’t feel it. I’ll try that too cuz I still have more to go. Thanks for the tip

Walk ... all they told me ... but the problem is and was that when I walked I felt all the gas coming up instead of down. Weird. So then by 2 round I’m in so much pain and gasping for air.
