So I am scheduled to undergo RNY Gastric Bypass tomorrow and am on the 2 day pre-op clear liquid diet. In the guideline that my patient coordinator sent me it stated that I could have chicken broth, went to Hale and Hearty for lunch and they did not have chicken noodle Soup (I was going to just drink the broth) so instead I bought the lobster bisque Now I'm terrified even though the bisque was very creamy without anything in it at all. Anyone on here know if I'm screwed or if the bisque was okay to eat?

Yep, I go home on 19th. 6 nights here.
The open surgery means they keep you in longer - but the up side, no gas pain!

Wow, so you didn’t get the laparoscopic procedure.

No, this surgeon does them open only, esp when his is taking the band out too. He hand sews, not staples, and feels he gets a better result.

No real pain from incision at this point, and a scar no-one but me and mine will see, so I was ok with that.

Thanks!

48 hours after op, and just sipped 30ml water - it all went down, which is a good sign. Pain pretty much gone- up doing little walks every 3 hours.

Way easier than I 8magined!
