Yesterday was my surgery and it went really well, the surgeon was in and out in 45 minutes and there were no complications. My stomach is sore but I'm not really nauseous. I've been taking walks around the hospital and I just started my sips of water. Today I meet with my surgeon to discuss after care, my psychologist and my dietician, just for an overview. I can't wait to go home and lay with my kitty.
My name is Samantha, I am a 22 year old hairdresser and I am getting gastric bypass surgery in less than 12 hours. I wanted to join this forum to get advice and support as I start my journey to a healthier lifestyle. Any advice would be great. What were your experiences like? What can I do to get started on the right foot?
