  2. Dinner at the hospital lemon ices but it has sugar. Thought we cant do any sugar in clears.
  3. Leak test passed. Also a recision from band person who had surgery after me also passed. I am sipping Water but i dont know how much to have. I am not even thirsty. Tomorrow i get released. I am so tired and weak. I havent slept good at all.
  4. I was in your spot yesterday. Its not as bad as i thought it would be. Dont worry..
  5. Doing okay. Little pain where they pulled the stomach out from. Morphine is my friend. Leak test around 830am hope i pass im thirsty. Havent slept much.. Im used to sleeping on my side or stomach but cannot do it. All these bells and whistles kept me up most of the night. I an still in recovery and should get a room today is the leak test passes. The nurses are great here. Couple cuties to lol.
  6. An update. So its been 10 1/2 hours since surgery. The only pain i have is the incision where the stomach came out from. Pain meds arent really helping, im taken heavy stuff to. Had the wife bring a heating pad and it works a little on the stomach pain. Kudos to those who have posted it here, i woukdnt even have thougbt about it. Excuse my spelling im just so tired and cant fall asleep in my back. Have t slept all day. A few things i will post. After surgery the Dr said it took longer because of all the fatty tissue in my stomach and liver. He said he almost stopped but he got it done. Tomorrow 8am i do the leak test and hope i can drink im so thirsty. I think all the fatty tissue was from me not doing the pre op like I was supposed to. I had ribs one night, sushi, pasta, shrimp parm like it was the last dinner. But i did do clear liquids the night before lol. The nurses are great i have to stay in the recovery room till tomorrow because i wont be downgraded till after the leak test but their is so much noise in here its ridiculous. Patients keep coming and going but not me. So the cool nurse said their is a private room that we keep for unruly patients "" VIPs" so she put me in it and i am now alone how great. Door closed and about to go to bed. So i had my wife buy a dozen dunkin donuts and I handed over to the nurse and i told her this is the hardest thing i ever done they all laughed and i told them to save me one lol. Now im getting real VIP treatment. I dis walk around but my incision hurts. Not much gas pains and they dont give gAs meds here so my wife is going to target tomorrow to get gas x, the magic bullet blender , and low fat mayo and tuna. I have 2 cases of protein drinks from costco premier protein. I did not buy any bars, i dont think i need any do i? Also is pureed cream of mushroom soup good on the liquid diet. I wont cough it hurts, no throw up at all. Nauseous went away quickly. And i hate peeing in this Carton. Update again tomorrow.
  7. Only one is painfull and i think its the one where they pulled out the stomach. Morphine is doing its job. The sleeve was staples only. Tomorrow i get a cat scan i think for leaks.
  8. They have a drain tube in me seems like watery blood that comes out.
  9. They just gave me a shot Of some pain me. Not morphine i feel high. All i need is cheeseburger medium rare lol
  10. Damn the incision hurts.. I dont think its gas
  11. Just finished surgery. Right side pain took a pisss and now sitting. Right side pain going away when i sit.
  12. Just got out of surgery. Right side pain but ok. Didnt speak yo Dr yet. Dr told my wife my liver was real fatty and had to move it whatever That means. My fault for eating shrimp parmagiana and cake on the pre op i guess.
