My NUTs biggest concern right now was my Vitamin levels were absurdly low hopefully once I'm back on track she'll talk to me about weight loss again lol.

Had surgery yesterday
I hurt like hell gas is fucking crazy and my 6 sutures are extremely sore. Doctor said everything went really well. Threw up last night most horrible experience ever as well as you throat hurts like crazy. Was walking around yesterday but it's painful to push to pee or fart ;:-/

I have mine Tuesday too but being in NZ it will most likely be your Monday night(assuming most of you are state side) I can't believe the years of dreaming and months of waiting are so close to being real.

It gets easier lol I promise once your stomach shrinks a bit

We all heal differently I would never say I had extreme pain and I was up and walking to and from the bathroom the same day as my surgery. And even then everyday is a little easier than the last

Today is 3 days post surgery. Doing better taking Tylenol with codiene once yesterday for the ride home and about one hour ago. I am in recliner at home just get up to walk and go to bathroom. Took a shower this morning and it went well. My mother is here and this has been my salvation. She does everything and more to help me. Like cooking for my husband washing clothes and fixing all my shakes. When my back starts to ache from lying on it too long i sit up in recliner without my feet up. Its good to change positions often. Walking is also part of my routine. I am doing my incentive spirometer several times in a day. I always have some Protein drink for me to be constantly sipping so I can get my fluids in and protein at the same time. Keeping track in log book. I can get up by myself go to bathroom by myself showered by myself today is better than yesterday. The anesthesia took longer to wear off on me, i asked why and was told the procedure lasts about 2 hours so the exposure to the anesthesia is longer than when i had my gallbladder out. I am not hungry at all. Watching movies and other recorded shows and sipping all day long. Abdominal binder still on. Good luck to everyone still going to surgery in August.

They're definitely trying to keep my pain under control just a lot of medicines are making me queasy including the medicine for gas. Trying to keep up with my liquids is difficult but I trying by best.

I'm getting so nervous for my procedure on Monday!!! And the liquid diet is getting better. I still crave food tho every once in awhile
