Back Home ....

[dagmar68 12]

So i got home this morning, still feeling wonderful. ...just a lil sore and a tiny bit of gas pain....i lost 8 lbs with this pre op diet, that makes 33 lbs i lost since october ,when i got sick with Gerd and Gastritis ...now i will have to continue the same diet for another 2 weeks. As of right now, i cant get no 3 shakes in all i had was 1 ,i did put double of the Protein Powder in tho ....then i had a little broth through out the day . I just had a 1/4 cup of Jello for dinner and i felt a lil uncomfi but maybe its because my insides are still sore... ...overall i have to say my first hospital expierence in the USA was wonderful very nice nurses and doctors they took very good care of me :wub: ...

I was banded today too. I have had two cups of peppermint tea and have been sipping on a no calorie generic Vitamin Water. I tried to eat a SF Jello earlier, but I felt uncomfortable after a few bites so I did not finish it. I will be trying a cup of broth later in the evening.

I think our stomachs are so surprised right now that food probably is not too good a factor to add. I'm not really hungry either, so that's a good thing

I am definitely sleeping a lot because of the meds.

I ended up taking two naps after I got home yesterday. I had only slept about 4 hours the night before surgery, and so I was really tired going in. I then took my first dose ever of oxycodone after my first nap and it kind of kicked me in the butt. I feel relatively normal today, just having very minimal gas things in my tummy and soreness in the port area. Nothing too bad though

banded today and feel awful.

Are you feeling better today Brandi? I am sending my best wishes.

I was banded on Tiesday. Lots of nausea and vomiting after surgery--think it was from anesthesia since this is my 1st surgery.

Home last night and had to take pain pill and phenergan last night. Am drinking and was able to eat about 1/2 cup of Tomato Soup earlier for lunch.

I do feel odd in my stomach,like I know the band is there. Does anyone else feel that?
