I'm in day 4 of post op. Haven't felt hungry yet but this 2 weeks on 2 oz of slim fast per meal seems rough. Port site is a little swollen but not hurting. I have little energy but what can you expect on about 200 cal/day diet. Have lost 7 lbs since being band.:whoo:

Haze... woohooo keep it up, you sound like you are doing great!!!

Yes the lack of energy is a little worrying in the first week or so but it does get better and the lack of calories is usually the culprit!!!

Don't be surprised if you get a little hungry and maybe gain a few pounds during the mushies stage but I truly belive the choice we made to be banded was the best decision ever!!!

Good luck and keep it up :-)

Hi Haze :wave: you'll be on to more calories and feeling better in a short time. It just SEEMS like forever when you're going through it! :P Hang in there, it gets better.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
