In my experience, you probably won't care what you look like. I've had quite a bit of pain and I'm walking the halls with no bra on because at the moment, I just don't care. Ponytail instead?

Oh and for me, it's doesnt feel great to lift your hands up that high.

Yea I didn't care at all. Was to busy trying to get through my first few nights. Now once I returned to normal say day two after surgery I started caring.

I didn't need converter. They had the same outlets we use in States.

Ok, so my expirience so far was a nice one. In recovery I gave Dr.Luna a little laugh as I was still "tripping" lol and first thing I heard when I woke up was 2chainz bad b lol , once the anesthesia startded wearing off I was in a lot of pain (gas pain) , a whole lot of nausea. But the nurses have been great in giving me meds like clock work.

Today I feel a lot better, did the leak test earlier today which was nasty, then a few hours later the second leak test with the blue die which was nasty also, but upside to that is now I get to have ice and gatorade.

Surprisingly the drain does not bother me, but the gas is horrible so I have started to use my gas x strips today and they have helped a bit. I also got to bathe, and now jsut wait til tomorrow for discharge to the hotel.

I think thats about it, if anyone has any questions feel free to ask. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
