Great ideas for food and stuff! I'm thinking about getting lapband...
-
I'm 2 months behind you, so I'll be interested in reading what's ahead for me by way of your experiences.

did your doctor tell you to take ibuprofren (misspelled)? it can cause band erosion. you should not be taking it. if your doctor said it was ok, then fine. but i was advise to NEVER take iburprofen ever again. google it! walking helps with the gas. get up and walk for at least 5 minutes every hour or so. you look and sound great for day 2 post op. keep it going. take care.

Welcome home... and congratulations on getting banded! Are your meds liquid? or are you crushing pills? I am still trying to figure all of that out! and so weird, we had the EXACT same dinner that nigh! LOL

@TheSmoney5 Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. I think at day four it was still a little difficult to do anything physical. I remember it being difficult to traverse stairs days 1-3 but I was feeling a lot stronger after that. I think by day four, if you take it easy, you'll be okay. I would try running them or anything, haha.

they actually gave me regular pills and the tylox is kinda big. I was a bit worried about taking pills at first but they actually go down fine. the last meds I got at the hospital was a fairly large pill, again I was nervous but it went fine. I burp a lot (tmi?) but everything goes down fine without crushing or breaking in half, thank goodness!!
