I had mine the 12th and can barely see the incision' date=' but you can sure see where the tape was. I have no idea why I bothered telling them I was allergic to that adhesive if they just use it anyways. Glad you're doing so well. I've been walking like crazy. Did you gain any weight from the IV fluids after surgery?[/quote']

No weight gain. Everything has gone great. Well except the reaction to the bandages. I've been up and walking as well. Last night was the first time I actually was hungry. I just think it was the grubby food my fam was eating. Lol tomorrow is my 1week followup. Staples should be released and keeping my fingers crossed to .start my pureed phase. How's your 1st week going?

Thanks! I'm home now just taking each day one day at a time. Sounds like I'm behind a few others that were around the same dates as me. I guess I'll give myself a break since I had a little but harder recovery at the hospital. I am sure not up to a mile a day for walking, maybe soon

Surgery went well. Yesterday I was wacked out! Nauseous and hurting and crying. It was mainly gas pain but I'm burping like a pro my boyw would be proud. Walking my laps is getting easier. They switched me to oral pain meds and the nausea is getring better. Just had my first meal lime Jello and apple juice, took me 40 mins to eat it lol overall today I feel good

I'm doing pretty good Shanny. I'm 8 days out still on Clear liquids. I have minimal to no pain and have been walking 1 or 2 miles a day for the last 4 days....mostly out of boredom. I had a monster headache yesterday, but it's better today. I have follow up appointment tomorrow so I will finally get to have some pudding and Protein shakes etc. I have no idea why my doc does Clear Liquids so long. I still haven't had any actual hunger...just mentally hungry. I'm glad your doing well.

GL Laurie know exactly what your feeling I'm Monday the 25th also!

Thanks!!.. U too.. It's going to be a good day on the 25th

[Lauriesworld76 20]

I've lost 11.1lbs since surgery. Total weight loss since last Monday the 11th has been 18.1lbs. It's amazing!

Wow!!.. Awesome.. I keep thinking I'm going through this and I'll be the one person who doesn't lose weight.

[Lauriesworld76 20]

Congrats to everyone who has made it through their surgery! I'm so envious!! I will be right there with you guys in 2 days!!! It doesn't even seem possible!!! At that first visit with my surgeon last August' date=' March 21st seemed like FOREVER away! Now it's here! I'm just about through day 2 of my 3 day pre-op clear liquid diet. Really looking forward to not feeling hungry since that's all I feel now. I'm so ready to be on the other side of this mountain![/quote']

Awwww... thank you! I've been trying to pack the last 2 hours but I keep having to run back to the.bathroom with the "shits". This magnesium citrate is NO JOKE! I wasn't hungry today while on my clear liquid diet but the more I empty my poops the hungrier I'm becoming.

I was just wondering on average how long it took everyone to have their first bowel movement after surgery?
