Sailor59 0 Posted August 1, 2011 Ok so I am now 6 days post op and first day back at work. I had really hoped I would feel better than I do right now. I feel over all Lethargic and sore. I have a tinge of nausea constantly. I have no real appetite and have to force myself to drink the Protein Shakes. I am supposed to start incorperating mushies into my diet tonight or tomorrow. On a bright side I am down 26 lbs since I started my pre surgery diet. Another issue I do have is Diahrreah! I guess it is liquid in liquid out but it is getting old! Are the feelings I am having normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reverie 49 Posted August 1, 2011 Normal! After about a week I was feeling "okay" I'd say after a week and a half I was back to normal. Just rest as much as you can and focus on healing. Though Lapband is branded as being the "least invasive" WLS, any surgery is invasive and time makes all the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are the feelings I am having normal? I'm on day 5 myself, and "d" has been the way of life for me since I started pre-diet. I can't wait until I can have a semi-regular meal of grits or oatmeal. I'm still sore and taking painkillers, but it seems better each day. I haven't lost the weight you have, congrats on that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ButterflyM 2 Posted August 3, 2011 If u r lethargic u really should contact ur Dr's office, thats not a good sign. Diarrhea will dehydrate you especially if you r not getting in enuff liquids.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
