Surgery went well, not much pain yet I do have a “happy button”
The only thing that sucks is when I move the leg with the Foley line taped to it, ouchy, lol
Little sleepy for now though
I got here at 8 and getting t done at 9, quick and painless, feels like I did too many crunches..

Losing almost 3 pounds a day seems like, my only thought is if I’m not eating anything, what the heck am I pooping out? Lol

Isopure-Nope not good, lol
I feel like a wimp, so I bucked up and suffered through a Premier Protein, lol
It’s kind of weird today though, I am feeling a little hungry, kind of the first time I have, but the Protein helped a lil and broth is soothing, going to work is fine, I had a lot of energy, I notice I have a ton of at this point, so I think everything is going well still...
My “holes” are just starting to be a Lil itchy, I hope that’s heeling itch
I notice a difference in my face already, I measured my neck, chest, and stomach on my surgery day(1/22/18) when I reach my 2 week i will post my inch losses.

I’m home now (came home Wednesday at 10:30 am)and feel great, I’ve lost 16 pounds already, I’m sure was getting through the Water weight from iv, I have to drink really slow, I can feel it like pressure on my stomach if I swallow to much, but I’m told that will get better with days, I finally pooped today and it was normal, I really don’t feel all the pressure from air everyone talks about, maybe once in a blue moon in my shoulders, I walk and it’s gone, I am up and down a lot to get comfortable and to make sure I keep my legs moving but otherwise this has been a walk in the park. I have only had to use the oxy a couple times the first day home and that was for muscle strains.

I just had my first meal....broth, crystal light, and Jello never tasted so good! Thanks for checking in everyone, (best decision ever)

pretty much lived on greek/ icelandic yogurt...

Wow. Guys loose so fast! I am down 25. Week 4! What kind of shakes do u drink? I drink the ones from Walmart/Sams/Costco. Premier Protein. Like 5 flavors.

The last couple days I’ve been having trouble with drinking the Protein Shakes, everything is super sweet and the shakes are hard to keep drinking, I just went to GNC and got some Isopure, I’ll see how that goes, other than that I’m down 25 pounds 6 days out, I feel great, the weather was great today and I went out and cleaned my car out and stuff, no problems, I think I’ll go to work tomorrow, one week out and I feel fine to do so. Finally able to sleep on my side last night too

Mine is today, it’s crazy how fast it sneaks up on you...

Glad you did well

My surgery was on January 18th. With the exception of the full liquid diet & soon to be puréed I feel as though everything is normal. I can chug Water already & so far no food has disagreed with me. I’m starting to wonder if they even sleeved me at all. Feeling great & hoping things only improve!

I’m so glad to hear your doing well congratulations [emoji323][emoji324][emoji322] on your new journey in life [emoji257][emoji254]

Just had my RNY this morning. I was definitely prepared to experience a lot of pain and discomfort. But let me tell y’all...i feel amazing!! Hardly any pain, no nausea, not much gas. So those who have surgeries coming up, DONT BE AFRAID! I am your reassurance that not every story is a horror story. Be brave and remember that it’s so worth it! So blessed!

I felt the same exact way. My surgery was scheduled for December 27 and I wasn't feeling well plus my husband was very sick. My surgery was postponed they were saying Jan 29. I said WHATTTTT!!!! No frigging way am I waiting that long. The surgeon cleared his calendar for jan 3. I was on the calendar. I started thinking.....omg, is it meant to be, should I do this...I won't be able to eat...you name it I thought it. I also thought, I went this far had all my doctor clearances tests etc...this is my chance to get this weight off. I knew if I said no I would definitely regret it. Jan 3rd came and went here we are jan 21 and I am post op doing well. I am down 18 lbs could be more by now haven't weighed myself in a few days. Is it hard?? Yes. I had to drink liquid for the first 2 weeks. It went down well. Soft foods now for the next two weeks. So far it is going OK. Walking everyday. If you do it you won't regret it, if you don't do it you might regret it. But only do it if you're ready. Seeing the weight come off the scale go down is an amazing feeling.

hope all went well and wishing you a speedy recovery!!!

Good luck! Take it slow at first, get some rest to recover, it will all be worth it in the long run. Took me a few weeks to start feeling somewhat normal again.

Good luck with your surgery. It will be better than you expect. I'm 9 days post op and have been very lucky with no complications. Let me know how it goes xx

I pray your doing well today and that peace will come over you. It will all be worth it and congratulations to new beginnings [emoji323][emoji322][emoji324][emoji177][emoji1431]

Today was my first day with my chewable vitamins and I took the first one I was so close to throwing up I couldn’t take anymore. It ruined my whole day I was nauseous all day is this normal ? I drank some Water before should I not?
