Tell your gastric bypass surgery story

I had my surgery on April 18th and was I nervous but to my surprise once the surgeon came into the operation room he said okay and I don't recollect anything I stayed in the hospital for only one day which I guess was good because I had the room to myself and was bored my lips were so chapped after surgery I couldn't pee and it took over a week to make a bowel movement and I fell off the wagon knowing if I ate chocolate I could poop I had huge black n blues on my belly but I used bacitracin on the incisions which has helped if I drink right after I eat I get hiccups it was hard to get in the 2 quarts of Water but I'm sure that's how you lose weight you barley consume food post-291486-14623227077561_thumb.jpg

I had my surgery April 20th I was in pre-op room next thing I know they said Richiele...and I thought ok here we go for surgery and they said no you are done! I said are you kidding? I have no memory of any of it. I stayed 3 days. I was in for my birthday. I also had my own room my husband stayed with me and helped me with going to the bathroom and walking. But I do not remember anything except what my husband says. I had the gastric bypass.

The thing I hate most was I a big Water person now it taste like perfume to me. :(
