Day 3 after lap band surgery

All is going well on this Day 3 after surgery. I am pleasantly surprised that I am healing so fast. Reminder that I am giving huge credit to my personal trainer for working me out tough for the previous 3-months. I am not experiencing hunger in the usual way so that is good. Lost another pound overnight and suspect that will continue at 1/2 to 1 pound a day until I can eat something solid. Walking every day, only 20-minutes so far but will increase that every day until I am back to 45-minutes plus. Not going to do my personal training session on Weds as I can't bend very well from the waist yet without annoying my stitches. Plan to do training session next Saturday although with very light weights.

My BF has been an absolute gift. He is very careful to make sure that I am not trying to overdo things. I can't stand being such a panty-waist right now. I hover because I can't help with much, argh! Okay, I did try to lift a couple weights, BAD. Recovered well but won’t be touching them again for a week. Isometric exercises are a better choice right now.
