I had surgery this morning and all went well. I was there 3.5 hours and home by noon. I have been really tired, but the pain is minimum. I don't know if I will feel it tomorrow but so far I haven't needed any pain meds. It just might kick me tomorrow, you know how you do yard work and feel sore the next day? No gas pain yet? I am not comfortable lying down though. I sleep better sitting up. I walked for 15 minutes and feel just fine. Not hungry, just been trying to drink Water and sf drinks. Now I am off to feed some feral cats I care for (tnr). Have a nice evening everyone! Oh, and I lost 20 pounds on pre-op diet! Yeah!!

Congrats and welcome to the other side !!! I felt a little tired and worn out the first 2 days, but much better on the 3rd day. Daily hot tea and a hot shower helped alot , along with walking and liquids. Hope you do well ! Happy 4th of July !

Thank you pinky. You have a nice 4th of July also.

Glad everything is going smoothly for you and hoping it stays that way. My date is July 24th & I'm scared off and on.

Great job with the pre-op. I only had a weeks notice. I should have focused more on trying to loose months ago. Not really knowing if my ins. would approve the surgey. But reality is Mon is the big day. Hope each day gets better for you. Happy 4th.

Congratulations on your surgery and way to rock the pre-op. For the first time in a long history of dieting, I knew the weight I was losing was never coming back. Here's to Independence from obesity and choosing health!

ounds great. Tommorrow is my day. I will be staying overnight. Just hoping for minimal pain.

Congratulations on your surgery! Praying for a speedy recover. If you don't have a heat pad and an ice pack get them! Send someone for them after you get home. Take your meds, no shame in that! Eat lots of popsycles will help with the swelling. I'm not quite 2 weeks post op. My a week I felt great. The worst was the gas pain. Its all worth it!
