Surgery on 8-19-15

Hello I'm a young 32 year old woman who's battled weight my whole life. After starting a journey towards weight loss surgery in 2008 I have finally achieved it just past a week ago. Got RNY, laparoscopically, finally getting back to feeling human again. I'm down 5lbs so far and feeling good. I've had a difficult time healing due to a hysterectomy and bypass in the same surgery. So ready, and happy to have finally started this chapter my book of life!

I'm now 13 days post op I'm feeling really good. Down 14 lbs, my doctor has released me to fly back home tomorrow. I'm a lil nervous about bumpy landings but I plan to have my cough pillow for support. Walking is almost 100% normal again just minor discomfort. Most of my wounds are healed.
