I had a RNY done on the 7th. Still a bit weak. Still sore. But over all I'm better. Hope your recovery goes well. Best of luck.

Hello everyone! I am reaching the end of my 4th day after surgery and I must admit, this recovery has been extremely rough on me. I've been in excruciating pain. My entire left quadrant, both upper and lower are extremely sore and sensitive to touch. My ribs hurt, I could barely walk on my own, I can't stand, sit or even move without assistance. I was barely even able to talk. (( I'm not gonna get into details about the gas part.. it hurts to even remember it )) I am making progress.. slower than a turtles pace.. but some progress is better than no progress.. right? *baby steps* I was in the hospital a little longer as well. Not being able to walk was a setback for me. Thankfully there was a Nurses assistant by the name of Charles (( my angel )) who was determined to help me get out of there. I am forever grateful for that man being there. This is just an update on my post-op experience. Don't want to discourage anyone. If anyone could relate and k ow of anything that can help me.. please! Please! Please!!! Let me know. At this point I'm open to anything. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am finally feeling better. Yesterday was pretty tough and most of the day today. The discomfort that I've felt due to the air they pump in your stomach has been my worst night mare. I could barely, walk, talk, move, sleep, breath. I was in excruciating pain. They changed one of my pain medication and ever since then I've been a lot better. Still in a lot of pain. I still have the gas pains and body aches. But overall I'm much better. Thanks everyone [emoji1374] Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Six months of weight management classes, 2 support groups, clearance from the psychiatrist , cardiologist and and PFT. I could not gain weight.. I had to either loose or maintain. Sorry for the delayed response. Best of luck to you on your journey. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Today is the day. I ended up choosing premier brand Protein shakes. IMO.. the chocolate shakes taste just like the Yoo-hoo brand chocolate milk. So it works for me. Anyone else starting their diet today ? I can use some recipe ideas. My diet consist of 3 protein shakes 1 high protein snack 1 meal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
