I had mine ten days ago. I have had absolutely no problems. Walk as soon as you can. I was walking within 2 hours after leaving recovery. I then set my cell phone

timer, to make sure I walked every hour. I also set the cell phone timer to make sure I drank every 15 minutes. Use your cell phone, for all kinds of reminders, even Vitamins. I am using apps to keep track of my Water and Protein intake. All of this has or is helping me. Hopefully some of it will help you.

I had my RNY this morning at 9:30. I was in the recovery room by 1130. Not as much pain as I expected, now to take a nap hopefully. Not a lot of pain four on a scale of 0 to 10 nurses are great here! Thanks for the support

2AM. Just got done walking, used incentive spirometers now siting in the chair! My surgery yesterday. Surgery was less than 3 hours, also had my gallbladder out. Minimal pain and walking really helps. I'm so glad that I had this procedure to get healthy, fit and positive!

Mamie - congrats on your surgery! I'm so happy to hear your doing so well they say walking helps a lot with the gas.

Today is the first day of the rest of your new healthy life! Thank you for going on this journey with me.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
