1st post-op visit

Ok so I'm 2 weeks post-op today and going for my follow-up visit. I know they will remove my stitches but anything else I should be prepared for? I am feeling great and am so excited to continue this journey!

Funny how everyone is different and have different experiences, I had dissolve-able stitches..that did not require removing and the sterilized steri strips fell off on their own.

Also I did not have to see my surgeon until 4 weeks post op.

If you feel great, congrats!! For MOST people the next step is to wait until 4-6 weeks post op for their band and port to heal to start the fill process if you need one.

Good luck!

Welp first visit in the bag! Doctor was ecstatic about my 19lb loss, he said "you hit it out of the park!" Now I get puréed food for 2 weeks then on to regular foods. First fill October 29th. I am over the moon happy!
