Faith73 11 Posted July 6, 2018 Hello, my RnY was on the 3rd. All went well. I did have a lot of pain while I had my drain in. Once it was removed the pain immediately went away. My Doctor ordered an elastic waist band that has really helped especially when doing my walking. I am home now and feel great. Just going to continue resting for a few days. Best wishes to all of you who have your date coming up. 2 jjacobs0816 and blondechic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdcheesehead 83 Posted July 6, 2018 Hello @Faith 73, I also had my surgery on the 3rd. I keep hearing about these waist band and I so want one. I think it would help my new tummy heal and not hurt like a ..... Every time I get up or try to sleep. I'm getting my liquids/protein down ok and I've been walking every chance I get so I'm pretty happy about that. Just happy to finally be in the losers bench.

Karie1275 12 Posted July 7, 2018 Well I’m day four into the preop diet along with a week prior of having the stomach flu. I weighed myself this morning and the first fifteen pounds are gone. Although the last several days I’ve have a headache. Has anybody else had this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I've had a couple of headaches during the pre-op diet and some friends who have also had the surgery told me it was normal. I guess it's sugar/carb/caffeine withdrawal? I upped my Water and that helped a little. Hope you feel better! 1 Karie1275 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J San 1,071 Posted July 8, 2018 Day 10 on my pre op diet and I started getting them yesterday. Not a normal headache either, feels different. Like a deeper pain if that makes sense? Goes away after the next meal. Actually got me nauseous today for a bit. The hunger has seemed to get normal, not better just normal. But the headaches are new. Hope they don't last the rest of this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleevedlove 16 Posted July 8, 2018 I had my surgery on the 2nd and the pain has been bad. I am finally starting to feel a little better but I do still hurt when I drink Water or have a sugar free popsicle. My belly is still numb in some places. And sore to the touch. Follow up on Tuesday I plan to ask lots of questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
