fallenfeatherstudio 26 Posted December 29, 2016 Hey everyone! I'm two days post op and I'm a loser now! Yayy! They found a small umbilical hernia and they gave that a few tiny stitches to rectify that once they were doing my sleeve. In some pain but I stay on top of my painkillers. I'm up walking a bunch, going to the bathroom and finally able to continue sipping my Water. Just had my first sip of Protein Shake and boy have my taste buds changed! I will be completely honest I woke up from surgery saying to myself "what the hell have you done to yourself" and I can't believe I had to do this but those feelings quickly went away when I started thinking of my new life and being around for my family ❤️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my Bat Phone using the BariatricPal App Hi BigJohn58! I went in at 9:45am and had my surgery around 1:30-2pm (surgeon had an issue with the person ahead of me). I was in recovery for about an hour and then I stayed the night and was told I could leave the next day as long as my liquids were staying down. I'm not going to lie, I did think about one more night in the hospital but I knew I would heal much better being home. So I came home around 5:30pm the day after surgery Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
