Finally on the losers bench!

[Purrplelover 48]

Ihad my surgery at 8:45 est. My doctor said my surgery went really well. It was a lap band to sleeve all in one conversion. I have not been allowed to eat or drink today at all. My first drink will be tomorrow at my swallow eval. And with this surgery I think I was one of the lucky ones, I have not even been hungry!! I have only needed pain medication 4 times since surgery, I am very sore, but I am not really in a lot of pain. I have been up and walking multiple times times today. Last time I walked around the unit 4 times. So if I don't have a leak tomorrow I will get to go home!!!
