Today is Post-op day # 4 and it is going o.k. I'm not in much pain only when I don't take my dose on time.During the day I take half a dose and take a full dose in the evening around bedtime. Sipping the clear liquids is fairly easy to do with my phone alarm reminder because I don't have hunger pains so far. The only thing that is a little irritating is my abdomen full of gas from the C02 they inject into you before surgery. Just got some Gas-x chewable and they seem to be helping as long as I continue to walk every hour. A little fatigued at the moment.
I'm very happy with my decision to have the surgery !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You Dr.Johnston, ST.Vincent Bariatric surgical team and the entire Staff at Mercy Weight Managment Center YOU ALL ROCK

Surgery was yesterday and I was scheduled a gastric bypass , but because of the scar tissue from my C-section 24 years ago . After my Dr.removed as much scar tissue as possible he was unable to perform the bypass. The sleeve was done and I feel 😊 hopefully I hold the water down so I can get to go home😜😂

This morning I had a swallow study @ 8:00 a.m. to make sure there is no leaking inside my new stomach.
The radiologist cleared me to go home so after Dr, Johnston checked the x-ray he came to my room and explain the 1st week consist of clear liquids for 7 days.I got back for my post-op visit on September 7th so he can explain the 2nd-week menu.🤸🏿♀️🤸🏿♀️🤸🏿♀️🤸🏿💝😍😜😻😻😻

@chemica Melissa Campbell Thank you, Thank you Thank you !!!! Baby Girl you are on your way. i wanted the gastric bypass as well, but do to the amount of scar tissue from my previous C-section didn't allow it.My husband o.ked it while I was under anesthesia so when I came to he told me first thing. Don't worry you will lose the weight you want.At the time I made that decision I was 275 and the day of surgery I was 255lbs. That 20 lbs made a big difference and if I do everything I'm told to do I will have no problem getting to my goal of 135lbs.
