3 days post surgery

Aug 13, 2009

Today is Thursday and 3 days after my lap band procedure.  I am very comfortable with almost no pain although I am a bit stiff and sore. The inflammation around the lap-band must be going down because today is the first day that I can swallow something without feeling every drop go through.  There is measurable healing every day.

My surgeon requires 3 weeks of a liquid diet that should include 40-60 grams of protein daily and 48-64 ozs. of water or other non-calorie liquids.  That is looking like a pretty long highway but I have promised myself not to swerve and put the healing of my stomach in jeopardy.  The truth is it will be sip, sip, sip for the next 3 weeks but hopefully pounds going away...
