All went well

Happy to say that my surgery went awesome. Was in OR at 1515 on 3/19 and home at 1245 on 3/20. Fortunately no gas pain.....but alot of soreness and the worst was feeling the drain being taken out. I'm doing well with my protein, jello, broth and all fluids. I'm feeling good about my decision to do WLS and even better that I have so many prople to share and exchange our positive and negative experiences with. Thanks you all for your bravery and just doing what's best for you.

Thanks you Bariatric Beautie aka giggles 232000

I struggle with understanding why some surgeons put drains in people and some don't. I was so fortunate to not have drain for my sleeve procedure and/or my gallbladder removal......It sounds so painful......Welcome home and it's good to have you on the BIG LOSER'S BENCH! :)

Well from what I was told by my surgeon, it's to get rid of extra Fluid around your incision, the fluid needt a port of exit otherwise a buildup of fulids could cause dangerous complications...however if a surgeon chooses not to use a drain that seems fine too because afterall they are the trained professionals and hopefully do whats best for their patients on an individual basis...Thanks Ms. Skinnie never been so proud to be on a awesome winning team ~TeamBariatricBeauties~

Super jelly, congrats on a smooth sail. Hope it just gets better and better!
