January bypass buddies??

Anyone scheduled for surgery in January 2018? I'm booked in for the 12th. Would be nice to chat to people in the same stage x

I had my sleeve Tuesday. Still in hospital. Still have pain but not as bad as the first 24 hours. I can get up and walk a bit and go to the bathroom on my own, and am now able to eat a bit of pureed apple, bone broth with a potato blended in, and water in between. They might let me home tomorrow.

Good to hear. I have mine on Monday, so I'm just in the final stages before starting a new life.

Glad to hear that things looking up for you. Were you planning on being in the hospital this long, or have the doctors just being cautious?

This is their normal procedure. I'm in Switzerland. I could stay till Saturday but would like to leave tomorrow. Will see what they say, though it won't be before after lunch.

All good here! On liquids for the first 2 weeks. So far they're going down well. I really like the broth and the protein shakes are fine. Looking forward to moving to the puree stage. Good luck for your op xxx

Doing brilliantly thank God. Had my surgery the 12th, home the 15th. Can't eat everything on my post op plan because I get too full but no pain and I have good energy today. Up to know I would get dizzy and lose energy very quickly. Wounds healing well. All in all I'm so delighted. I do miss work. Sitting around isn't for me lol Best of luck with yours. Do exactly as your doc says and ask all questions even if you feel it might be a daft one. Then you'll fly at it!

Thank you. Glad to hear things are going smoothly for you. I hope I’ll be able to say the same.
