    welcome!!!!
  9. All of our stories sound the same! today is much better... pain is still apparent when getting up and down. thank goodness for my little snuggle pillow. I carry it to the recliner, couch and to bed with me. if I walk my hand is on my stomach, every step of the way. We will forget about all this pain 25#'s later!,, )))

    24 hours post op

    Congrats on your surgery!! Welcome to the banded side! My surgery was Friday am, so I am 5 days in. Take your pain meds and walk tiny steps. I walked circles in my house from room to room. Each Time you walk double it, by yesterday evening my goal was 5 minutes. today I went to Wally World and walked the store. take it east and rest. good luck and keep me posted. Lap {{Hugs}}
  11. Lapbandguru....could u have these items the first week? I am restricted to clear liquids only.
  12. Chicken noodle soup... Drain and sip broth. Plain broth is double nasty!!! Jello is yummy to the tummy!!Gatorade for electrolytes, trust me you will need them. I had surgery Fri. Am....Good Luck. wishing you well!
  13. Wow!! How ironic we both had hernia repair???? How's your day so far today? Are you still on pain meds?
  14. Thank you Grammy. Right now I am on the downside of the whole process!!!!
  15. when will the pain subside???? when can I potty? hurts to move,walk, turn in bed. I have to hold my stomach and put pressure on it in order to move. walking circles inside the house.. Hopefully, I will look back and consider this a piece of cake but right now I am second guessing my surgery. 5th day on liquids and I am very weak. Any tips would be appreciated. than you friends!!!!xo
  16. # days post op and I am 5# heavier! WT.....??? I am guessing it's gas still trapped in and not moving. Even though I am walking a lot and getting up and moving around. I am on all clear liquids right now and can add protein drinks tomorrow! YIPPIE!!!!
  17. Hang in there! The timing will be best for you when it happens. When you look back you will know why the tiny delay. Enjoy your days before surgery! Good Luck! Keep us posted!
  18. Had no idea the pain would be this bad!! :(

  19. what about pain under left breast. has anyone had this. when I walk or move I have to press my hand against this area.
  20. Fourteen hours ...I will be a banded woman! WHOOT!

  21. T - 43.....GUNK!!!! (Am I REALLY ready for this)?

    Just banded and need answers. :)

    When I went in for my pre-op info, the nurse told if IF after 5 full days I was HUNGRy and just couldn;t stand it... I could try a tad of creamy soup- thin enough to pour out of a spoon. IF you can make a smiley face in it...it's too thick!
  23. Are you walking? I here the walking REALLY helps move the gas....
