@lelewatson. You will not be in a lot of pain. I had rny on wednesday sept. 14. Came home sat. First day you are druged. No pain. Second day your mouth will be super dry when you wake up. They will give you swabbs for your mouth and one once crystal light per hour. Should be no pain or problem. Second day 2 onces hr. And you will go home. You might weigh ten pds more due to iv weight gain this will vanish. Follow the diet and walk. Best of luck.

I have my surgery on 9/28, like many others above! I'm in NH. I can't wait. I'm on the pre-op diet (day8) and I just took some new measurements, and I'm losing pounds as well as inches. That's exciting and encouraging! I can't wait to continue to see the inches and pounds drop! Woo hoo!

Good luck to everyone!!

Thoughts and prayers for one and all. I had my RNY on Monday the 19th and am home doing remarkably well. My new mantra is walk-sip-walk-sip... I suggest you keep on top of pain management and follow post-op schedule as strictly as you did the pre-op liquid diet. The toughest part for me is the 1oz of clear liquid every 15 minutes (48+ oz in the day). I am using ProSource Berry Liquid Protein for 3 1oz protein shots throughout the day and doing my 30 minutes of walking in 3 10-minute sections in different day parts. Keep a pillow handy to cover your stomach with for coughing up post-op "guck". Feel free to reach out if you need someone to chat with in the days and months ahead.
