November Surgery

Hi everyone! I am new, planning for RNY in November. I live in NC - anyone else?

How long are you all planning to be out of work? I work at a desk job and I feel like I might be able to work from home for part of he recovery time. What are y''all planning on doing?

Getting close!

I had my RNY on November 15th. I’m so excited to start this journey! I’m definitely ready to progress my diet though! I’m a bit tired of the blenderized diet.

I had VSG surgery on Monday in Tijuana. My clinic took excellent care of me and I was up walking about 2 hours after surgery. The next day I was discharged to a nice hotel. I was completely exhausted. I did a little bit of walking, sipped some broth and electrolytes, but in the evening I experienced the foamies. I think this happens to me if I drink too much or if I go too long without sipping something. I haven’t thrown up and generally feel pretty good today. Today was my barium leak test and I passed with flying colors. I look forward to flying home tomorrow. All of my sleeve sisters seem to be feeling good as well. Tomorrow I also get to add kefir and protein shakes to my diet. Hopefully it goes down well.
