Hi Guys
Feelin a lot better today - stomach is swollen and tender but main thing is the trapped wind has eased off a bit. Im taking gripe water and keeping up with painkillers and just pottering about which helps I think. Im an active person so bored already and its only 48hrs post surgery so Im gonna have to keep occupied. I have to stay on liquid diet for 2 weeks then mushy slop for 2 weeks and then introduce solids from week 5. I dont have a band fill until week 6 and it can take several fills and several months to hit the sweet spot with the right level of restriction. This can be frustrating for some people who are looking for fast results but I see it is a long game and wont be fazed by that. Im gonna keep a close eye on my calorie intake along the way to ensure I dont risk putting on any of thos valuable 38lbs that i've already lost. The company that provided my surgery include a 2 year aftercare package that included monthly meet with nurse, unlimited fills , nutritional support and fitness trainer advise.
Sounds good
Cheers James
