The end of 72 hours post surgery

Inspiredsmile

970 views

Hard to believe that it has only been 72 hours ago that I had my surgery. I feel remarkably good, almost normal. I walked the dogs with my husband this morning and it felt good to be out and moving. The scale went back down to what it was the morning of my surgery. When I came home from the hospital I weighed 219 up three pounds. I am guessing it was from all the fluids that they pump into you. I was glad to see it go back down to 216. I have been doing well with getting my proteins in. I went into the office this morning to do a couple deposits while no one was around. I still haven't driven anywhere, but I am not taking any pain meds so I suppose I could drive if I wanted to. My husband usually drives me around anyway. For all those September sleevers that haven't gone yet, I wish you the best and pray that you have a good post op too.

Glad you are doing this good! My surgery is Tues. (17th) I like hearing positive results. I know it can go either way. This liquid fast has been the pits. Every day is a new symptom, but I am determined to get off some of these meds.

Spooky I will be thinking of you as your surgery date draws near. (two more days right?) Just do what the doctor tells you to and your make it through. Sounds like it will be a positive new start by being off some of your meds.

Good job... I was sleeved 8/21 and I can't even believe I'm on the other side. 28 lbs down.....things are looking up and I've not had a moments trouble. I was worried in the beginning.....because I'd never been under general anesthesia. It was fine.... took me a couple hours to assimilate to the real world again. I went to MX and flew home the second day....no problems at all. You'll be at three weeks soon and you won't believe the difference. Glad you're doing so well..........we are on our way.

Who was your doctor? I am planning to go on 10/4
