Banded Mar 26

My surgery was so easy I asked if they did anything after the anesthesia

wore off. My pain never went above 3 out of 10, one time. The difficulty

began when I couldn't urinate and they ultimately had to insert a Foley

catheter. I've been bleeding a lot since then when I urinate and although

I still have no pain don't like this at all. Its only been a few days since

surgery and I wonder how long I should wait before seeking more

treatment/advice.

Its also disappointing to me that the weight is not moving down, I

expected to see some results after switching to the soft food diet, and

I'm surely taking in a fraction of the calories burned for a day. I need

to be more patient but thats not me.

The weight will start to fall off soon enough. Your body is hanging on to every pound as it is in starvation mode. I felt the same way as you at first. Avoid the scale is my advice. Wait a couple of weeks before you weigh again.

Good luck!
