The losers bench

Aug 10, 2011

Well here I am. 4 days post op. I am sore. I can't get up wthout help. I have a drain till the 16th. My left side is the worst for pain, they said that is the biggest incision so it will hurt the most.
CAMC General Hospital really knows how to care for their bariatric patients. I felt like the nurses genuinly cared about me. They seem to really know their stuff too.
I have only just begun stage 2 of my diet. I have a meal plan I am following so I get the right amounts of things. I look forward to the creamy peanut butter shake they gave me the recipie for.
I wish I would goahead and pass gass because I know thats whats making me really sore. I've burped planty of times but the other end is a different matter.
well it's really early, I just got up for a pain pill and to get a few ozs of water in me. I have to say I love the head nurse's analogy of my pouch being a little frog that likes to stay wet and cozy.
I will go into more detail on my surgery experience later.
