I'm having gastric bypass on dec. 1! So excited!


How’d it go!? Hope all went well and you’re recovering splendid [emoji1488]

Mine’s Tuesday too! I’m getting super nervous! I can’t wait to find out my surgery time tomorrow!!


I have to check in at the hospital at 530am[emoji51] and surgery is scheduled for 730am, gonna pack a hospital bag tomorrow and clean the house so when I come home I don’t feel terrible about not helping with kids and chores. My essentials will be toothbrush, robe, slippers, and comfy clothes, and lib balm. Oh also a lanyard... my surgeon makes us have a drain for a week and everyone says that hooking the drain to a lanyard helps with hands free.


Dang! Lots of surgeries this week!!! :D Merry Christmas! :460_circus_tent: Hope everyone's well, sip-sipping and walking!!

Just checking in how did everyone do? I had GBS dec. 5th, and got to come home the next day! First day was very painful and now I’m feeling much better. Just walking and sipping.

I had mine done the 5th too! They required a 2 night stay which annoyed me but there wasn’t anything I could do about it so I just sucked it up. My worst day so far was yesterday, a small headache, lots of nausea and just plain felt crappy. Today is so much better! I was able to get in 40oz of water in yesterday (after leaving the hospital at 1pm) and already at 30oz today so I’m happy that’s going well too!

I had mine done the 5th too. Was in one day..then back the next night because of severe dehydration and vomiting and nausea. He is keeping me in for 3 days checking on a bunch stuff. Today over the course of the day I drank my first liquids (the best salty chicken broth) Im pretty sure it came from a powder but it was amazing! Off liquid pain meds as they make me sick, but managing. Just keep moving forward, right?

I got my drain and staples taken out today one incision is alittle irritated no pus just red and draining fluids so they put me on some horse pills of antibiotics but then seem to be going down good so far. Life is 100% better with out those things! And on to full liquids. Cream soup and cottage cheese never tasted so good!!
