Incisions
Also, is it unusual that the incisions still hurt? It hurts to get up off the couch, roll over in bed, etc. I went to the store today and had to stop walking because I started to get severe pain from the incisions.
I'm worried about straining - it's an effort to get myself up off my super-plushy couch. How long before I feel "normal"?

Don't litter! Spay or neuter your pet
You have undergone major surgery and should take it easy and give yourself time to heal.
In a couple weeks or so you should begin to feel better, but do not overexert yourself. Drink water, and your protein drinks. Take your vitamins and read and journal this experience.
Keep your mind occupied on healing. You will feel great, especially when you start seeing the weight disappearing!
Don't push yourself too hard.
I see you had your surgery on April 4 i had mine on April 6 and i have 10 incisions... i went from the Lapband to the Rny... so i know excactly what your going thru... im a person that cant sit for too long and always on a go so to sit here and do nothing its not me... i do get up and do a couple of things around the house go for a walk but as soon as i start feeling tired i do sit down... i figured my health is a little more important... i even told my husband to bring the laundry downstairs to the basement for me to do and he said know that he was going to do it..So yay for me... do not pull the strips out they will come off on their own. If they don't fall off that means the incisions are not healled yet...
