I'm in my hospital bed.. had my gastric sleeve surgery this morning..had to be here at 530am surgery was started at 745am..im in some pain but nothing like I thought it would be. The area where is the biggest incision is the one that hurts the most..i have had two pain meds so far today . About to have another..Gas med and got a shot in my belly to prevent blod clots. My husband had to leave to be home w. Our children. So now I'm just laying here drifting in and,out of sleep. Waiting for greys anatomy and scandal to come back on tonight. They had brought me two trays of food today. Both trays had a bowl of chicken broth, dcaf tea water flavored crystal light .. I wonder if they r gonna bring me the same thing in the morning.

I have walked 3x. Urinated a lot prob from iv drip.. have had 1 1/2 bottles of water so far.. just wanted to update on my first day.

Wow that's so great!

Great to see that you are doing well!!!! I just had my bypass on Jan 4. I had the same meal after surgery (stage 1). Then by day two being in the hospital I was on stage 2 and the only thing added was the Protein mix.

FOR THE BEST!!!![emoji173][emoji173][emoji173][emoji173]

Glad to hear you're doing well! I'm in NJ too getting mine next month at St Clares in Dover.

Well Done! Wishing you a quick recovery and a successful procedure:) Sounds like you're doing great.

So much better now. I walked, took a leak, & got moved into a huge room. If things only improve the next few days then this was a breeze.

That sounds great ! Hope things keep getting better for you !! If you don’t mind , bring us along w you on your journey. Keep updating. Thanks !
