4 days post op and feeling great!



Recommended Posts

Hello fellow bandsters!

I went in on last Thursday with my friend (Cucumber) and it went really well. Had a few sips of Water on Thursday and some sips of juice. Came home Friday, but mostly just slept on Thusrday and Friday.

Yesterday I started REALLY feeling hungry (after going back to work) so last night I had a can of cream of Tomato. Not in my diet, but I did it because I felt like I needed it. And guess what? It went down fine, and I felt full and didn't feel dizzy and brain-less like I was earlier in the day.

So now I am on the slimfast cans as I can't survive on broth and juice for 2 weeks NO WAY! I feel great, I am about 9-10 lbs down.... a little soreness at the port site.

But I feel MUCH better than I thought I was going to. So far, I feel like I have made a good decision. Mind you, I look at the food my family is eating and boy, does it look good! But of course, that's the whole point of the band, it "controls" me:smile2:.

Now, I just gotta take it day by day, and now thinking of the next "food".... mushies I guess? What will I eat?

Hope all the Sept bandsters are doing good!:smile:

Hiya,

I was banded 2 days ago on Saturday and im feeling rough today I was ok in hospital and stayed over night, i was even fine when i got home but last night the gas pain got intense. I am suffering with it today as the cuts are itchy and uncomfortable and i feel like a hot air balloon full of gas ready to explode lol but i am still happy because i chose this, i wanted this and i have done it. I too was feeling hungry so thought about deviating from my diet but was to scared too, ive been eating yoghurt for Breakfast and yoghurt for lunch but today have no appetite which is good i guess. Glad you are feeling so positive and having a good time of it so far x heres to us september bandsters xxx :smile:

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
