Surgery yesterday.

Had my Lap Band put in yesterday morning. Everything went well. I can only get down about half an ounce of Jello today. Everytime I swallow it hurts and I was just wondering if that was normal? I just may have to liquidate my Jello.  Other than the gas pain I am feeling fine and just thought I would pop in and say Hello. I'm off to get my protein ( I know , I procrastinate) and liquid vitamins.

yay congrats!!! for ur throat i keep on sucking on halls vitamin c cough drops and that seemed to help the hurt in my throat and that made it easier to get food and drink down. also a little liquid tylenol helps.
