Hi all, I finally made it to the losers bench! Surgery went well, despite some problems with the hiatal hernia repair. Haven't talked to surgeon directly about that yet. Pain is low. Woke up with shoulder pain from gas, that was expected thanks to everyone accounts. First walk is within the hour. I have been surprised a few times when I wake up and I am sleeved, lo l, so happy it's done!!

I had the BEST night's sleep last night, and on my side, no less -- heaven!!! Today I'm all about the fluids and walking for gas, which I can still feel around my shoulders and my arms (?). To hopefully stave off constipation, I am taking 2 oz aloe vera juice and probiotics at the recommendation of my surgeon. Have a great day, people of bariatricpal.com!

Congrats!!! Yes, I had gas in my arms and shoulders- it will not last forever! It took me 4 days post op to get rid of it and I have not had one problem since!
