Stephnance 8 Posted July 30, 2014 I am 7 days post op and feel pretty good! I am still a little soar on my right side. I have been walking every morning and getting as much Protein as I can stand. The liquid bit is getting old but I will hang in there. I have only lost 8 lbs so far, I guess I need to do more walking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessiquoi 623 Posted July 30, 2014 Congratulations! Thanks for sharing. Good attitude "hanging in there"! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrandyV 16 Posted July 30, 2014 8 lbs is awesome!! Keep up the good work. I have my surgery on August 12th and I am currently doing a two week liquid diet. I'm both nervous and excited. I hope that i feel OK 7 days out. I am more worried about the after surgery phase, than the surgery itself. Congrats on everything!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comeflywithme 402 Posted July 30, 2014 Good for you -- walk walk walk and remember to stay hydrated so drink those tiny sips of Water often! 8 lbs is good, it'll get better and eventually, the pounds will be melting off and you'll feel amazing! Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maebugg75 5 Posted July 30, 2014 As of today I am 9 pounds and 6 days out. My only struggle is getting all the fluids. Yesterday I had doctors appt and I was at the beginning stages if dehydration. I didn't know. My heart rate was 125 sitting in the doctors chair. He called my surgeon and they said dehydration. Doing much better today. Even walked almost a mike with my 3 kids! 1 Stephnance reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisrn 11 Posted July 30, 2014 13 days postoperative doing good with Protein probably could get a bit More Water but have pain to the right upper umbilical area- md said it's from stitch that He place in muscle and increasing in my moving. Had been off Narcotics and restarted at Night so I could sleep comfortably- anyone else have this kind of pain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
