Jan 7 surgery

Had my surgery (RNRGB) at 8 am on 1/7... Surprisingly not much pain now. Went on 2 walks and breathing normally. I'm super excited for this journey!

Good for you. Congrats on the beginning of your new life! Keep us posted. I'm 8 months out & down 116 lbs. It only gets better day after day from here! Hold on, its a great ride. :)

Congratulations! The journey to a new you begins!

I was jan 7 @ 9 30 am, I was all star patient, went walking for over an hour did everything with a smile..... Until it came to fluids, apparently my throat was too swollen from have a tube down durning surgery, and I was unable to keep fluids down. I was very discouraged and the nurses were pushing so hard for me to drink past the pain.... Then The vomiting started and I was anxious and a little scared, I refused to drink anything after the last time I got sick and went to bed early At eight feeling confused and beaten... Woke up this morning sore everywhere but am now able to get fluids down and am so thrilled that within two hours I have kept down 20 oz of fluid! I feel great and hopefully going home today and will be in my low home able to get all these tubes outta my arm and just relax and take care of myself! Good luck Hun I hope you are doing much better then I was!
