Hi there! Welcome to the forum!!

I too had lap RNY on the 21st of June, discharged on the 23rd. I didn't have a fever but I do have a lot of bruising at the incisions (i have 6 too) it looks pretty bad but it is normal. Until today, I was finding it hard to get up from lying down (but I could lie flat and on my side no problem, once I got to that position) and I was having a hard time sleeping. But today I am feeling almost no pain, I feel so much better, and I am having almost no trouble at all getting up and down and moving around. I even went to the store and walked around for a little over an hour and I just got a little tired, not bad.

I think what you are experiencing is normal. Maybe tommorow it will get better, I also feel sick to my stomach when I think of eating certain things and I don't feel hungry at all, I hope this nauseous feeling is normal! I think the not being hungry part is.
Good luck to you, I hope it gets better! Have you noticed a change from day to day or is the pain just staying the same?

In maintenance... now I'm yo-yoing up and down 10 lbs or so. I'm trying to find out how to stay at a set weight, it's rough.
