tflemon67 88 Posted August 26, 2012 Man oh man, still pushing myself a bit too much - last night we took a walk around the block and then I had to go directly to bed, lol. Unloaded/loaded the dishwasher this morning, and I've been sitting down ever since. I'll be glad when the fatigue goes away - I'm day 5 post op today, down 4 lbs since surgery, down 17.2 from my preop liquid diet Abs are even feeling a bit better, too. Don't know if I'm brave enough to venture out of the house yet though, haha. I hope everyone is feeling well today, and good luck to tomorrow's bandsters! :) I was banded on Thursday and I'm getting better every day. I've probably only had 1 whole Protein Shake since surgery and I know I have to get nutrients in so I can gain more strength. Thankfully I've not been hungry and I'm really afraid of hunger setting in. Still debating on whether or not to go to work on tomorrow. I'm going to have to take it day by day.

cassiem93 39 Posted August 27, 2012 5 days post-up and i feel wonderful! my husband and i went out today and walked the flea market and than we even went out and got tattoos afterwards. (our 1 yr is on September 3) I still am a little sore but not that much at all. I find my self still gassy i feel like a man with my burps and farts. Thatsn not usually like me to just let it all out but i cant help it. I slept in bed last night and it felt wonderful still using the heat pad but ive been awake for almost 11 hours and thats really good considering ive been doing nothing but sleeping! Also havent been taking an rx pain pills, been sticking to nothing but aleve. I even cleaned the house today.. with help from my husband and son. I just hope the days get better and better and i dont go down hill anymore. I hope everyone is doing good and if you are still having troubles remember there is light at the end of the tunnel!!!! 1 clarks4willie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
