Yep, same here. sleep, sip, walk, sip, sleep etc. haven't slept more than two hours at a time. Not sure why? Maybe because I'm still in the hospital, but I get to leave today.

Because someone wakes you up every two hours in the hospital!!

I spent my first night home last night in my own bed and even slept flat w no discomfort. It was great to be in my own bed:)

I was lucky on this front. They only woke me at 3am and moved vitals to the same time as blood draw while I was in there so I could sleep! My hospital was great!

Good luck to all! Post-op soft food diet isn't too bad. It is nice to have some different flavors. Added GNC's Isopure Zero Carb 40 Protein flavored drinks to my daily sipping. Flavors aren't too bad and it is better than all the shakes. It helps get all the Proteins in! Looking forward to adding a variety of foods in about 3 weeks. Hope everyone has an easy road!!

I am day 14 post op having been doing pretty good. tomorrow I start soft mushy so moving out of puree's each step is sure a change. The last 3 days or so I am having back pain right in the middle close to my bra back. I think it must be gas. It hurts and thankfully goes away when I lay down. The weather has been awful this week and so maybe I haven't been walking enough.

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
