Surgery this morning and all is good. I'm sore and when I was in post op and woke up I had headache. I only used my pain drip a few times and then headache got much better. Mouth is really dry - ice chips taste really good.

Attached is a really cute picture of my tummy.

Hope everyone is doing good

Blessings -Linda

I had mine on the 22nd. I'm doing really well. shoulders are sore from the gas but I just got home from the drugstore with some reusable hot pads

I am 9 days post-op and I feel great. The glue on my incisions is gone, except for the largest one. No pain meds since day 3 (Tylenol). I'm still on full liquids but I've been trying puréed veggie Soups and I'm handling them well. I go to see my surgeon on Wednesday. Hopefully he'll move me to pureed food. I've lost 12 lbs. since surgery. My biggest struggle is getting my fluids. I know I'm dehydrated, but I'm trying to work on that. My mom is here and I haven't done a good job keeping track of how much I'm consuming.

So happy to hear everyone is doing well and staying positive! Keep up the good work!

Kinda looks like mine did. The outward signs go away and you will be feeling much better in a few days

It gets better. It took me a while to be able to drink more fluids. It gets easier with time. Don't push it. Do what you can.

Day 8 here post op. Off pain meds but still extreme dryness in throat. Drinking over 50 oz a liquid a day but assume with such low carb, my body isnt holding any Water.

Most exciting thing each morning is like a Christmas present stepping on the scale - this am 1.8 down giving 19 down since day after surgery (includes bloat form surgery - but awesome)

gosh - i hope you are ok... I am concerned for you with all that bruising!! Mine looked more like Lynkaye1 - only the "slits" where they went in.... and vomiting blood sounds worrisome - I hope everything is ok for you!

The surgeon said they hadn't seen anyone bruise like that before. So I guess I'm a weirdo. They are fading, and truly don't hurt. I figured it wouldn't hurt to put my picture up so in case it happens to someone else, they will know it's okay.

2 days post op and I feel..alright. My stomach still hurts but I just got the okay on drinking liquids and some Jello. I hope the pain goes away soon.
