I have seen some people do it as outpatient. my surgeon said I will be in the hospital for 2 days

It depends on your surgery time and tolerance. I had surgery at 7:30am and wasn't allowed any food or drink that day. The following day they started testing me on Jello, broth and Water. If I could tolerate, they would have sent me home. Unfortunately, I struggled with nausea and couldn't keep the jello down so I ended up staying an extra night.

I had my surgery at 8am and spent the night but feel like I could have easily gone home the same day.

I had my band removed and revised to a sleeve done at the same time. I went home the same day at 4 pm. I had an easy recovery.

Mine was same day surgery. Had the surgery at 11:00 am and was home by 5:00pm. Once out of recovery they had me up and walking around, drinking and peeing. I was fine to go home. Hardest part was coming out of recovery.

Same as when I had the band in and out - think it depends on what your Dr thinks is best.

My surgery is in the morning. I am so nervous because I don't know what to expect. I am having gastric bypass RNY

Good luck @@Candyj ! As hard as it is, try to stay calm. The surgeon and nurses will take great care of you. Just push yourself to get up and walk walk walk after-it helps!

Many doctors will wait until you can pass gas, walk around and your blood oxygen levels are up before discharge. That is assuming all went well of course. Good luck won't be as bad as you expect..
