I'm three days out and haven't had a bowel movement yet. Just a lot of gas from both ends and in between. I'm grumpy and sore and bloated. But I keep walking and drinking liquids. It's got to get better.

Every body is different, every body heals different, I was up shopping at costco and the streets of Tijuana two days after surgery, working my horses seven days afterand driving eight hours to work on day ten to a very remote location and eating what was made for everyone on the job site. I've heard some people take longer. Just like snow flakes no two people are alike. Find someone in the same situation as you and go threw the process together, lean on each other and find comfort with someone in the same boat as you. I found the entire experience very easy, others did not.

Good luck, when you feel better you'll be so excited.

Hi ! I had surgery 7/7/2015. Today I went back to the gym..its get better! as soon as you start eating real food (pureed now for me) your body has more energy.

I don't have any pain.Only the firs 2 days are horrible after that is ok.

I'm kind of out of ideas for menus but i will go back to the nutritionist tomorrow to get some help but not hungry yet

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
