Dub Been a while..How are you doing?

Go for post op check up tomorrow. everything seems great. I know I fell better than I have in years.. It gets better everyday. In a few months you'll be feeling even better! Welcome to the tribe!

that can be dangerous........

Well I'm almost 5 days out and doing great only spent one night in the Hospital, they said I was doing everything right so they let me go home! The first day after I had absolutely no pain. The second day I started experiencing soreness at the incisions I took the pain med twice then I tried Tylenol two times and I am taking nothing now. Weighed this morning and down 10lbs since surgery and when I'm up and around feeling good. The hardest problem I've had is staying up with is the hydration, sometimes it takes me into the evening to get but I will not fail on that item. It seems that smell and tastes are really strong and I have lots of gas moving around in my belly and chest but I seem to deal with that by moving around and walking. So far I've been pulled off my sugar meds and testing to see if I need to take them the same with my blood pressure meds my post op is on Thursday and I will know more. Dub Tall guys with long torso are the one's with shorter intestines .......LOL

I'm 4 days out of surgery and having them also, Just getting up and moving is doing wonders. I know that it is upsetting so take it easy on yourself......

well I did it. The dr got in and said that he had to do the sleeve due to my intestines being short to reach. Still kind of loopy but getting stronger staying hydrated is a chore and sore but other than that all seems well. Thanks for the encouragement!

Today is the Day! No looking in the rear view mirror. Thanks for the encouragement...Next time I'm on will be new beginnings

Maybe its the view.lol

Ready to be free............thanks Success to you as well.

Good luck with your WLS next week! Steve

Thanks Guys, Just a really big change.

I go in Oct 7, for my surgery. Getting the Gastric by pass. Started this ride in Jan and now finally the procedure. I have been experiencing a little anxiety as I get closer to the day but this is what I've been waiting for.
