6-Days Post Op

[Tank 112]

Am new to the group but glad I found it! I am 6-days out of surgery and am enjoying the journey. I was hospitalized for a few days after my initial release from the hospital because of pain. Now the gas that I have is so unbearable that I can't move at times! Does this go away?? I am a day away from finishing the all liquid portion of the diet and am a bit terrified of what's to come.

Did you have surgery on 7.19.12 ? I did lol . I too am having gas pain (crying to breathe sometimes) still. It has gotten a lot better by me taking gasx chewables and walking as much as possible . I get tired easily so long distances are a joke . Took me 1 hour to pick up a few items in Walmart !

I start full liquids tomorrow (im excited) so I went and bought some cream of broccoli and chicken like stuff . I also bought almond milk and yahoo Togo packets (no sugar, 5 calories) !

Welcome to the group ! Everyone here is nice !

Keep moving forward guys !!

We will have to keep each other updated on how we're doing. If you need support in here for you!! I'm sure I will need it too! 16 pounds is awesome!! I'm kinda curious to see where I bottom out. I was 205 when I played college ball with 5% body fat but I was HUGE!! I worked out with 305 lbs but am only 5 foot 8. I still lift but don't do much power lifting anymore.

Gonna be a great journey!
