Hey there guys. Had the surgery yesterday at about 8AM and according to my wife I was in a great amount of pain. By the time I slept a bit and woke up later in the afternoon I felt pretty good. Was up walking laps by 6PM. Felt better every hour and was discharged at 1PM today. I have the On-Q pump so that helps a bunch I think.

Now just to follow the doctors orders and stick to my diet and beat this thing and use the "tool" for what it is.

Thanks for all your well wishes.

I to am getting surgery tomorrow. It feels surreal. Had a year to wait and got more anxious with each month. Now that it is here, I am happy and scar d to death. Any advice for the hospital stay and post op?

Praying for you as you take this next step!

I'm almost one week post op. I was scared too but it really wasn't too bad. I still have a little soreness but for the most part feeling great and my blood sugar levels are the lowest they've been in years!

One week in and I am feeling pretty good. I have had my rough moments with the family eating some of my favorite foods but I know I can't eat it and if I could I would hate myself anyway after. This has been a somewhat emotional roller coaster but I am loving the ride. Shirts are fitting better than they have in ages and I am looking forward to next Monday for my 2 week post-op visit. Can't wait to see the progress I have made numbers wise. I know I feel it in my body. Full liquids can be rough but I can see puréed right around the corner and solids is next. Right now I am just craving
Good healthy Proteins. I want salmon and chicken so bad. Does anyone know how bad steak is on our new tummies? I am badly wanting a fillet mignon. Anyway I feel like I am rambling. I hope everyone is doing fantastic. This new life is a gift.
