smmk1980 7 Posted February 10, 2017 The first 24hrs were definitely hard for me. Mostly my recovery from being put under for the surgery. I didn't even feel like taking and liquids that day. I was doing ice chips. I was able to walk a few times that evening, but I slept most of the day. The next morning I went off my pain pump and that made a huge difference. I was able to take in more fluids and I walked about 7times that day. It really helped move the gas out.Sent from my SM-G800H using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dpeters88 22 Posted February 10, 2017 Had my surgery yesterday and I'm feeling pretty good, need to walk more but I'm so tired from the meds that it's hard to get up but I'm doing pretty good on my liquids. How's all the other post-op people doing?Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicole H 2 Posted February 11, 2017 My Surgery is February 21st. I am so excited. My doctor has not had me on any pre-op diet but I go in on the 15th for all my pr-op testing so I am sure he will talk to me about that then. 2 jhemp85 and 50yearoldme reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn42smith 7 Posted February 12, 2017 EGD on February 9th went very well. (I don't remember a thing). Lol. Visit with the anesthesiologist on Monday, then Surgery the next day. Tuesday February 14, 2017. I thought this day would never come. I'm so ready for this. Bring it on. I'm can't wait to start living a healthy and more active life. I can see the future and it's full of bike rides, hiking with my fur babies and kayaking with my hubby. Best wishes to all. What a great community, can't wait to share the rest of my journey with you.
