sideeye 1,440 Posted March 6, 2018 Just got discharged - sore, but not impossible and don't need anything but Tylenol. Very VERY sleepy; load a hydration app on your phone before you go in, if you can, I had a hard time keeping track when writing or typing. I'm using WaterMinder and pre-set a 1oz measure so I could just turn on the app and tap each time I drank. My stomach aches, but it's not sharp pains. Incisions are a bit sharper. For whatever reason I progressed really fast and was fit for discharge about 18 hours after surgery. I'm now home sipping a Protein Shake and getting ready to nap again. Remember that anything you bring into the hospital, you'll have to sign an "I won't sue if this gets stolen" waiver. 3 Apple203, SleeveinIL and Losingit2018 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frust8 963 Posted March 6, 2018 Do like the late Jerry Reed did with Amos Moses in his song, turn him into Gator Bait! F**k him or better yet don't F**k him, see how he feels about that! He needs to get on Team Florida Gal and now. Don't let him run rough-shod over you like I did my late husband. Nobody loves a soggy old doormat. Mine professed his love but I don't think he respected me. Learn from a sadder and later-wise person.Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SleeveinIL 386 Posted March 6, 2018 I received great news today. Since I started my Aetna PPO insurance required pre-surgical diet with the nutritionist in November, I have lowered my cholesterol from 206 to 165! The doctor told me my numbers were "excellent". Small wins sure help you feel better about the pre- process. Happy me! 3 ready4change88, Losingit2018 and PeacockConnie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
