For those of you who are post op, how much could you get down in fluids the first few days? When I was on an iv I didn't try as hard. I'm currently at 32 ozs for the day. That was the minimum goal from my program. The thought of 64 ozs of anything is really overwhelming. I'm 3 days post op. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

It may be a bit rough for the first few hours but after that it gets better really fast. Wishing you the best! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

My surgery was Wed morning so I'm 2 days out. I'm tired and sore. I miss my morphine pump [emoji852]️ I don't regret it at all but I can't wait to feel better. But I can shower when I get up on Friday! I'm having trouble sleeping so I told my husband we are buying a recliner asap. We need a new one anyways. Ours broke and we never replaced it. How are you feeling? Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

One day out from rny. It's still surreal that I finally got my surgery. I'm on clear liquids for another day then I can go to full liquids. I've been sipping water and premier protein clear all day. Had an ounce of chicken broth for breakfast and another one for dinner. Oh and like 3 tiny bites of jello. Don't want to push it lol Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm one day post op. I am taking smallish sips just cause I don't wanna go too big and hurt myself. I'm drinking an ounce every 15 to 30 min. It takes me 4 or 5 sips to drink it. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I slept on my side last night and am currently laying on my side. It hasn't bothered me. I'm a stomach sleeper and I'm too scared to try that lol Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm being discharged and going home! I was expecting to stay until tomorrow but my surgeon says everything looks great and I'm managing the pain so I can go. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I am so sorry you had to go through that. Vent away. I don't have a magic wand that can make it better but hopefully a reminder that the surgery is over and now you can start a new healthier life will help you see the bright side. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Not much. Barely using the pain pump at this point. Mainly just to help me sleep. Of course all my machines keep beeping and waking me up [emoji31]. I have a very low resting pulse that drops even lower when I'm sleeping. My nurse has had to lower the pulse rate monitor 3 times because I kept triggering it. Then my iv ran out. Then it was time for vitals. So yeah, I just wanna sleep. My throat hurts and my tummy is a little sore. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Add me to the losers bench! My rny was done this morning. It was pretty rough when I first got out of surgery but now I'm feeling much better. Sipping water and decaf hot tea. Been walking around the floor. Napping a lot thanks to the pain pump lol. Hoping I can bust outta here tomorrow. I already miss my bed. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I've been up walking a few times. They basically said walk as much as you want, just don't be gone more than an hour or we'll worry 🤣. Gas pain has been ok. It was a lot worse this morning. Now it's just a twinge in my right shoulder Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm all done. My surgery was at about 7:45 this morning. Anesthesia makes me really sick so I was not a happy camper for a few hours. Once that wore off I've been good. Throat is a little sore. Tummy is also sore. Morphine pump is really helping a lot. My nurse got me some warm decaf tea. It's wonderful. Been sipping water all day. Did my swallow test. Maybe I can bust out tomorrow instead of Friday. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

My surgery was this morning. I also had a hiatial hernia repaired. I'm doing pretty good. Just remember to rest! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm all done! Anesthesia makes me super sick so I was a whiny baby for a few hours after surgery but now I just feel sore and a little gas pain in my shoulder. Morphine pump is probably helping on that front 🤣🤣 Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm not even nervous right now. I'm just ready to be on the other side of this. I've been on clear liquids all day and this is actually the hungriest I've been in this whole 2 week preop diet process. Thank you for the words of encouragement! They really do help! I'll check in tomorrow when I can. Surgery is at 7:30 Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Mine is tomorrow morning and I'm still just having a hard time believing it. I can't wrap my brain around the fact that it's already here. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh and I love the kittens pic. I have a giant black Maine coon and a short hair black and white kitty. I would have all the kittens if I could. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thankfully I work at a school so I'm out for summer. I am, however, usually expected to do professional development during this time. A couple of my close coworkers know but I just told the others that I have some medical stuff coming up and won't be able to do pd. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I already picked up my pain meds. I got Tylenol 3. That's about all you can get in this area. I will have a patient controlled pain med thing the first day in the hospital. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Mine is on Wednesday too! This diet has been hard. I'm ready to be done and on the other side. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Mine is in less than a week. [emoji44] I still can't believe it's almost here. I'm the first one up on Wed. I also can't believe I've made it over a week on this preop diet without losing my mind lol Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I second this. It worked for me. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm one week in to the preop diet. I'm just used to being hungry now. Make sure to drink enough water. I didn't yesterday and I felt like crap. You can do this! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I don't have the guts to start a channel. I checked out yours and I am so going to keep watching! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
