It's thought us December peeps needed a post op thread! Anyone here?

Great news! Happy Saturday and happy life to you too!

I am just one day out from my surgery. Yesterday was rough...today was better physically but I did have some tears. I'm looking froward starting my journey!

Halogen it will get better day by day!

Greenize is right. It will get better. It's hard too see the future when you're in pain. But it will get better. Make sure you do what your medical staff say. And take advantage of those pain meds.

Hello all! I had my surgery on friday the 20th and was discharged earlier today. I started having gas yesterday, tolerated all my ounces well today, and even had a bowel movement today at home. Is my body moving too fast? I was told these things would happen later on in a couple weeks.

Hello. I had my surgery Tuesday... I am 5 days post op. I too have tolerated all fluid intake. I had lots of has leave my body while in the Hospital and am still getting rid of it. I had a BM while at the hospital too, the morning of discharge. I have had three more since I came home on a Thursday. I believe our bodies are working great! So much better to be functioning, rather than all plugged up and miserable. Rest, take your vitamins and supplements taking your protein and hydrate hydrate hydrate!

Hi All! I found you! Lol. RNY was on the 17th. SW eas 292.9 however I came home weighing 304lbs!! But today I am 289.7lbs! I guess that's really only 3.2lbs from surgery weight but I'll take it!! Going great. Minimal pain. Never hungry nor thirsty. Working on a schedule for that and vitamins!! Hope all is well with u guys!

Had surgery on the 20th, but am getting released today. Can't wait to get home! I have two small kids who are expecting Santa to come tomorrow night. And I have a lot of wrapping to do.

Congrats on your surgery

Congrats on all your surgeries! If you are having bowel movements then that is wonderful! I am taking in my fluid but still having to take laxatives! So yeah for you and your bowel movements, fluid intake, and feeling great!

Any one else feeling woozy or dizzy post op? The only way I can explain is that I feel like im coming down off pain meds.... maybe thats what it is. I dont like the feeling at akk!

Jackie I am also having that feeling and especially since I have pushing myself to get Chrisas finished! I am getting all of my fluids but I am hoping it is not from dehydration! So drink drink drink! Maybe my body needs more than 32 oz. I don't know! For this very reason of feeling this way I don't trust myself to drive !

Yea im going to just keep sipping. Im hoping its the meds wearing off. This is why I don't usually take pain meds, that feeling of "coming down" I just cant deal with it

I've been feeling a little nauseous, with cold sweats most days. I think it has to do with taking too big of sips. I'm still on full liquids. I get to go to pureed foods tomorrow. I know I'm not dehydrated. I'm drinking four half-liter water bottles per day, and my urine's clear or light yellow. I still get dizzy now and then. But not as much since they have me on half my BP meds now. Does anyone else feel nauseous with cold sweats most days?
