Hey there, I'm a week post-op on Thurs. I still have the gas, but no movements yet. hmm... Still taking a bunch of gas-x strips too. My doc has my taking an antacid and laxative so that when it comes it won't hurt.
I miss sleeping on my stomach, badly. I can't sleep on my sides at all, too uncomfortable.
I get hungry too. But once I start eating by the time I'm done I'm usually feeling a bit full.
My incisions ache, but not terribly. I don't feel so bad getting up and down any more either. I didn't even take a Tylenol yet today and the day's almost over!
If your port site is really bad, maybe you should call the doctor.
I'm jealous that you've lost 32 lbs already. I'm sitting a 18 lb. lost. I'm hoping by the end of the liquids phase, I'll be where you are with the weight loss.
Congratulations on being banded. I'm not feeling "anything like get this out of me yet." I'm certain I will have those moments. I'm staying strong and keeping myself busy - especially my hands. :-)
