Lap Roux 9/27

[jeepinalong 14]

Had my surgery Friday morning at St. Vincent in Carmel. Went home Sunday and feel pretty good. Have not had any pain meds since Saturday am. Eating and drinking ok and walking. Only took me 15 months to get insurance approval for the surgery. They took me off all my meds including the two different insulins I was on on Sunday, blood sugar has been in the 90's. Looking forward to my new life.

I am very glad to hear all went well and you back safe at home. Sounds like you had a easy time, that's great! I want my procedure to go just like yours. Congrats....

I truly believe walking every 2 hours was what helped me the most. Surgery Friday am and walked over a mile the same day in recovery. Passed gas Saturday noon.Not too mention my determination. I had plenty of time waiting on my approval to research a lot of forums to get the real info about this surgery. Going in I knew I had to walk and drink fluids to go home and that's what I set my mind to do. You can do it just get your mind together.

Surgery last Friday checked today for my log, down 26 pounds. Eating and drinking ok no problems. Lots of energy. Feel great for only being one week out.

26lbs in a week or 26 lbs since starting your preop diet? If it is 26lbs in a week, did they take out parts of you while they were in there doing surgery?

Nothing taken out. From pre op weight until now I am 26 pounds less. I didn't have to do a pre op diet. Went in to hospital at 300 weigh 274 now.

Your blood sugar is NOT doing what i wanted mine too. unfortunately, my blood sugar problems dont seem to have been solved. i was on two insulins and metformin. now i am on only metformin, but my blood sugar is consistently around 130 (which is admittedly better), but not that great when you consider I am not eating any carbs or sugars.

I was on two insulins, victoza, and metformin. They took me off all of it two days after surgery and blood sugars are normal. I still have to check twice a day. Never been over 120 since.
