Day 6 of revision...oh the pain

I had a revision from lap band to RNY on Aug 1. The pain in my stomach is rough. It radiates to my back. I wanted to quit the liquid Lortab but there is no way. My diet consists of
5 or 6 cups of Lactaid skim milk, maybe one cup of strained soup and 20 ounces of isopure for a total of 600-800(Max) calories and 60-70 grams of protein..Stepping on the scale is depressing because I have only lost 5 pounds since surgery day. I was down 6 but I gained a pound...eating 600-800 calories a day. I know its got to be the swelling. This surgery was much harder than my lap band. I go to the doctor tomorrow to get the staples out. Hopefully he can reassure me that I wont be the only RNY to not lose any weight.

Read my profile . Call me or PM me if you want. My revision was a yr ago, w/Dr Barker. This toooooo shall pass. You are doing great.

Hi
I hope your recovery gets better.  I'm have my revision surgery on 8/18 and need a quick recovery because my mom is only staying for a week and I have to run the house and care for the children after she is gone.

why do you have staples? was your revision open?

Hang in there - your body is healing. Focus on getting well, the weight will come.
