Feeling/getting better daily!

Hi everyone,
I had my surgery on 7/11 and was feeling a little pain and remorse in the first couple of days. I'm happy to report that today things started getting better all over: I can drink more and it's easier; I don't gag on my crushed meds; my energy is up; my gas is down; and I minimal pain today that only required a little rest no meds. Yay! Looking forward to my ongoing healing and improvement. :)

Great to hear you are feeling better. Take advantage of that energy to get in some nice walks and get that weight loss kickin'.

YAY! Congratulations. I had my surgery on 7/12 and I am doing great today too right about the same recovery time as you.

When is your post op appt? I have mine on Monday 1 weeek out to make sure my vitamin levels are ok.

keep up the good work

My post-op apt is on the 22nd. I think they said I'll be moving to the pureed stage then, too. I'll have to wait and see. Thanks for the support and congrats to you, too!

I was also a 7/11 surgery! Glad to hear you are healing so well. It's been good for me, too. Was yours laproscopic? I have 6 little incisions and they started to itch a little today. I think that means they are healing!

Yes, mine was laroscopic, too. It's interesting to me how different things are doctor to doctor: I only have four incisions but I wouldn't call them small. They are a little itchy but like you. I think it's a good sign. Congrats to you, too btw!

My doctor is very strict with a full 30 days of pure liquid so my preop will just be a check up. I wont be moving on to the next food stage. I am ok with that I am hoping the longer I am on liquids the faster I will lose since this is a revision for me not an intitial weight loss surgery it will probably come off slower.

My incisions are beginning to itch as well beecause they are healing and I have 4 also and a tiny spot with 1 stitch where my drain tube was in the hospital.
