Had surgery March 2nd
Had my RNY yesterday at 11:30 - surgery was 2hrs and 20 min and everything went great. Just had my swallow test and I'm clear now to start sipping stuff... I'm in pain but it's manageable and not as bad as I expected, my back hurt worse yesterday than my abdomen from laying flat for so long...
Good Luck to everyone!
I had my RNY same day as you. I am doing pretty well. I am sore where my jp drain was but I am doing well at getting my protein in. My "nut" says that the first two weeks I only need to be getting in 20-40mgs. and I am getting in about 50-60 a day. I am not having any real problems. Just sore some.
Hope you have a fast recovery!

Congratulations! I had my surgery about 3 hours before yours! Today was day one with "soft" foods, an egg, cottage cheese, pudding, pureed soup. I didn't get a lot down but I am still enjoying the protein shakes. I had very little pain, just extreme nausea from the morphine in the hospital. Hope you are doing well!
