Home from Surgery - Bloated & Blessed!
I'm home from surgery on Thursday. I am just happy to be recovering slowly but I am still in pain and very bloated in my abdominal area. Is this normal? I am walking around and made my first big boo boo yesterday. I had such as massive headache and I took a tylenol "pill" form. Its

Welcome home!
It is VERY normal to have a very bloated belly and be in pain. You just had major surgery! As far as the tylenol goes, that is not really a boo boo. My surgeon allowed pills in the hospital. She said that as long as it wasn't bigger than an M & M go for it! I did as I could not stand crushed meds or the opened capsules.
The more you walk, the faster the bloating will go down. Some people find relief by laying in bed and pulling your knees up and rolling from side to side. Walking did it for me.
You just had major surgery, so you will be sore. Remember not to overdo it or to lift anything heavy!

OH and take lots of pictures you will want to look back at them as you shrink
Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!
I am 1week post op and beleive me felling MUCH better than I did. I had the horrible pain, bloating and so on. I am still VERY VERY SORE!! I tire easily if I am on my feet too long and bending and getting back up repeatly kills me. Which sucks for picking up my kids toys.. 
Other than that I think I am getting the hang of this thing...( I hope)....lol I am eating more things already and obviously loosing weight..THE BEST PART!!! haaa I am down 16lbs in one week! So I'm glad you made this decision...and it will get easier..Best of Luck!!! 
You really made my day. I needed to talk to someone that was one or 2 weeks an still; feeling all this. A few of my friends had the surgery so long ago, and forgot. ONe of them was like I had no problems, I was practically skipping out of surgery. So 5 days later I'm feeling like the train is still in my stomach, nauseaed and dumping - I feel like an anomaly. Thanks so much.
God Bless,
