Hi. Relax, is the first piece of advice I can give you. You will probably only be a little sore, but surgery varies from person to person. I was just a little sore and had gas. Walking is the best way to alleviate that. My husband returned to work(nights) the day after I had my surgery leaving me to deal with the kids for a little bit, and thankfully he had no overtime so he took over for me when he got home. He cooked for the kids and now still does. It really wasn't hard to manage, we just did. I went to church the following Sunday. It was a breeze. The biggest inconvenience was trying to keep the hunger monster away. But hopefully, your hunger will stay away for awhile. I think I was a rare case in which it returned too early. I want to wish you the best with your surgery. At -90 pounds and being the lowest weight in 12 years, I don't regret it at all! Kristine
