Had the surgery today at 10:30a.m. and made it home close to 1:00p.m. and I slept for awhile; I left with my wife to get some air. So far I am just sore by my port and I have 5 incisions. All I've had so far is gatorade, water, slimfast and jello. I was wondering can I have orange juice or is that to acidic.

Oh noooo!!!! Just kidding. You may be fine on it, but I had V-8 on day 4 and regretted it...too acidic! I'd personally hold off on the OJ for a while.
Congrats! Way to get banded, bigman!

I was told no acid for 2 the first 2 weeks. Be sure to check the food thread for food stages. Happy to hear you are doing well.

I found out I was not suppose to have a protein shake, gatorade or jello until Wednesday and I had it late yesterday after I had my surgery, only water for the first 2 days. But I am sore by the port incision and not at the other incisions. I am going to take the bandaging off and clean around the incisions. Any advise from you guys would mean so much. And thank you for your kind words I've recieved from you all!

Bigman, you are being banded in the same place I was... who is your doctor? Mine is Dr. Marsden. You must live in North Texas, too? I hope you are home and resting and doing fine...post when you can. Cindy

I am just so sore at my port incision. Dr. Carter did my surgery and I live in Arlington.

It took about a week and a half for the pain to go away in that area. I spent many nights sleeping in my recliner because it was easier not to use my stomach muscles. But other then that I have not had any problems, I'm now in the mushy food stage , which is great! I had to go to the doctor to have him check out my incision area because I thought it looked infected (not) and I was already down 14 lbs. It such a wonderful feeling!! So I hope everything goes well with your recovery. Just think we all have finally made a positive decision about our health!!! Take care
