four days post-op

[kat1181 0]

I am 4 days postop and wondering why I ever thought this surgery was a good idea. Everything hurts, my stomach, my back, my head. I have heartburn from the minute I woke up. I am taking dilated and vicodin and I have to take them every two hours or I am in a world of hurt. I am glad ylthat I found this group and people who get. I hate to be whinnying but I need to know that it will get better, right??????

It'll get better by the day and soon the pain and hassle will be a thing of the past. You're body just went through a major surgery and has to heal....which takes about 2 months, so try and relax and get through it then it'll be on to the rest of your slim life

You are in the hardest part of journey for me! Stay focused on where you will be in 6 months! DO NOT CHEAT ON PRE OP DIET! it is extremely important to shrink your fatty liver as much as possible! Your surgery will go smoother and your recovery will be faster! you can and must do this to survive! IF YOU DONT CHANGE YOUR LIFESTYLE YOU WILL DIE AN EARLY DEATH! I hate to be soo blunt and harsh but it is the true!!!! You will fight harder and stick to plan if you truly realize you are in a fight for you life!

I've been there!!!!
