Will this be worth it?

YAY...… Its been 6 -7 days from the balloon placement. I feel much better about 85% . Only problem remaining is these stomach pains at times. I have also experienced hungry pains. I'm not hungry but my stomach is. Still feel bloated, it hurts a bit to push in my stomach. I'm sleeping much better yay. I added cottage cheese and oatmeal to my diet not sure if that's good but I felt I needed more food in my stomach to take care of the hungry pains and it went down good and made me feel full. Still on sport drinks, soft soups, yogurt. Everyday does get much better. I have been going to the bathroom fine too. I have been taking the meds the doctor prescribed except for the pain bills. I will start to add the multivitamins and Biotin gummy's tomorrow. ***As of this morning I'm down 5 pounds (7 pounds if I include the 2 liquid days prior) to placement****

10 days out and if it wasn't for my stomach pains/discomfort I would be 100%. I added more soft solids to my food intake and man everything I eat feels like I ate a whole cow! I get stomach pains, like if its stuck in my esophagus and when I burb is could taste it! Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Maybe its too soon for solid food even tho I chew 25 times. I ate 1-2oz of chicken & maybe half cup of veggies and I could not sleep with the discomfort but didn't want to throw up, so I slept seating up lol. In the morning I was better. I also have problems going to the bathroom now. I'm going to stop eating solids for now. I'm going to do more protein shakes. Anyone have advise? Besides that I'm good. Energy is there, stomach pains are mostly when I'm done eating so sometimes I forget I have Big Bertha (balloon) in my tummy. Oh I'm at 8 pound down total :)
