Hi fellow December dates... I had my rny on Dec. 4th and came home from the hospital today.  I had to stay 1 extra day because I'm having a heartburn issue. Other than that I feel ok, haven't needed pain meds since Saturday. I can walk freely and it doesn't hurt too much. Can't say I really feel like eating.  The gas and heartburn

oopps.... clicked submit too soon"!!!  To continue, the gas and heartburn just overwhelm me.  But I have to believe my surgeons.  They say it will pass. It may take 2 - 3 months but it will pass.  So I think the end result is still worth it all.   Other than that, no other problems. Good luck to everyone.

Congrats on your surgery and hopefully speedy recovery. I had my surgery the same day as you.
I had some heart burn issues also, and could not drink the cranberry juice in the hospital, I substituted snapple diet iced tea and have not had a problem with heartburn since. I havent had
problrems with any other part of the diet so far.
Best of luck, keep us posted as to how your doing.

Good Luck to all *****plied!  It is so exciting and different.
The heartburn issue has subsided and I am not having any problems with the protein drink or fluids and I feel great.  It is such a nice surprise.  Still a little tired and I have to remember I am not superwoman.  Leaving the whole house to hubby for 4 days was a little trying!!!!
