I had my surgery on Monday and have just gotten home. Overall, it wasn't too terrible. However, one of my incisions in my left side is is unbelievably sore. I knew I would be sorer on that side an any other but OMG!!! I had no troubles meeting my Water intake goal (64 oz) and walking in order to leave the hospital. Now that I'm home, the real work starts. Got to keep up the Clear Liquids for the next several days and getting some Protein in. Also, painkillers are my fav right now! Ha!

Clear liquids for a week. My program has 6 weeks of directions. Requiring 80 grams of Protein a day. Pain in the hospital wasn't that bad except for the one incision on my left side...yes, I used the morephine pump as much as possible and then started on Iquitos Lortab. This one incision is painful!! It's where the did the most tugging and pulling. No, they didn't take out the stomach during the rny. My advice is to follow the program that was set for you!
