Im 5wks post op and was like you. The morning of surgery, my nurses that helped prep me was just so calming that i wasnt stressed anymore. Now i live in pensacola fl, and my dr is just so sweet, he gives you his cell phone number and say call if u feel like anything is wrong. I had surgery at 730am and was done at 1040. He ended up removing my gallbladder and repairing a huge hernia that i didnt know i had. I was on a iv the first day, the next morning, they sent me down to xray for a upper g.i. to make sure that my pouch wasnt leaking. After that test, i was allowed to sip on Water and juice. The next morning i was given watery cream of wheat, Jello, juice. I couldnt stand any of it, i didnt want any of jt. Now that first day after surgery, that afternoon they got me up to walk. I had 3 c-sections, so i kinda knew what to expect. The more you walk, the better you feel. Some people get really bad gas, i didnt, but i also went for 3wks without a bowel movement. I had to start taking something to go, and it wasnt nice. But since then, i started out wearing a 3x, 5wks later im down to a large. I havent stepped on the scales , i never do unless im at the drs. I go by my clothes, and im happy with that. That was all in 1 month. I only had 100lbs to lose and by the way thats going, i should reach that goal by Feb. 1 thing is true for me is that right after surgery, my taste completely changed. I drunk my Protein shakes everyday but now, anything that has dairy, i cant keep down. So im having to get my Protein from food. Everyone is different, but just do what your dr and nutritionist tell you to do and you will be great. You'll do great
