Hello everyone , its finally over and i made it through...I must say surgery went great no problems , i got out of bed after it and walked the hospital floor 6 times , i felt good,As far as the gas wow gas x is my best friend , And another thing the noise that your belly makes it unreal there is like a band in there just singing,I must be honest today was not such a great day for me, I was starting to feel depressed on whats going to happen for me in these next few months as my body image does change,I think its a scary process to go through and i am so thankful for this forum for me to learn , thank you so much

Scared? Naw, don't be scared. Well, be a little scared, because you are going to spend A LOT of money on new clothes, LOL

You will have good days and bad days, but I promise your bad days post-op will be MUCH better than any "good" day being morbidly obese.

Take care and welcome to the loser's bench!

Congrats on being 6 days post op! Did you or are you having any pain? How long were you in the hospital?

Not to much pain i had, lots of gas that was about it ,one thing i can say is a pillow will be your best friend it helps so much just holding on my belly, i was in the hospital for 1 night...

Wow one night. That is great that you were feeling that good you could leave. I haven't had my surgery yet I am hoping everything goes smoothly like yours did. I have read a lot of comments about having a squishy pillow so I will have to remember that! Are you having trouble keeping anything down?

No not at all no problems with that at all. I take baby sips lol i am still

On my 2 week post of liquids , i have been getting lots of ideas to mix things

Up it does get boring, alot of drs are so different on post op diet, just do whatever

You dr tells you , Go into this very happy

congrats I am glad you are doing ok...don't be nervous or scared about your future just view it as a new lease on life with so much more energy and better quality and I am sure you will look amazing throughout your weight loss journey into stabilization
