Post-Op Banders

[CrystalYOLO 3]

Five days post op and I still feal bloated, but I am down 27 pounds. I stopped my pain meds so hopefully the gas will start to pass. The surgery was nothing like I expected. Once I was wheeled in the room I was out; I woke up to my freind two hours later and I was up walking a couple hours after that. My incensions are healing very nicely. And I have yet to feel any hunger. I also was able to walk around in the park with no pain in lower back or heavy breathing, three weeks ago I barely made it to the bench.

how wonderful that you were able to walk like that and not be winded.. you are doing really well. 27 pounds is a great weight loss. you will lose the bloated feeling . i cant quite remember, i think it was about five days before i fully realized that i had lost some swelling in my feet etc.
