I made it through surgery!! My surgery was scheduled for 1:00, everything went great. I do have some pain around my incisions but other than that I feel good. I did laps around the floor I was on once I was able to get up. I am feeling good - all in all. I will say I have had 2 c sections & my gallbladder out & I feel better right now than I did with either of these. Now the fun part begins! :)

Congrats!

It's good to hear about the painless surgeries as my time approaches.

Was there a lot of sitting around boring time or did they shoot you up and drag you off to surgery immediately then wake you up and send you on your way?

No I didn't have to be at the hospital until 11:00 (surgury was schedule for 1:00). I was called right back once I got there. There was about a 30 minute delay with surgery but my husband got to stay with me through that time. My doctor came out & said the person on front of me was hard to put to sleep so that put them behind. All & all it was very smooth. I left the hospital at 6:00. So I was there 7 hours.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
