Glad you came through so well! Been sending you happy thoughts.

I was gonna put an update on the board after we talked on Friday but I wasn't sure how you would feel about me doing it, so I waited until you updated on your own.
Did you get the GAS-X? Don't worry too much about eating just be sure to get your fluids in, you don't wan to get dehydrated. As the swelling goes down you'll start feeling better. I can't believe it'll be 6 weeks tomorrow since I had my surgery. Time is just flying.
Keep your chin up Hun and feel better. Remember I'm only a phone call away.

woo hoo.... so happy that you are done... that was the hard part...yu will feel better everyday... all of your syptoms are normal... rest... walk...sip... let us know how yu are doing... tammy

Congrats on your surgery.  You will do fantastic !!  I had RNY May, 2009 and at the beginning I felt like I wa**** by a truck 100 times or more.  It does get better.  Today I'm 140 lbs. lighter and feeling great.  Make sure to get our fluids and take your suppliments.

You will learn what you can and cannot eat on your own.  You are at the beginniing of your journey.  Only best wishes come your way.

Get rest and keep hydrated !!

Michelle I am so happy to hear from you and I'm glad you are well.  Less than a week and you are on the up side...good for you.  I am so so happy for you!!!!

Walking is the best thing you can do to relieve the anesthesia related gas pain - normal that's the pain you get up into the chest/shoulder. GasX would be best for gas pain from other causes. Good to see you are on the losing side!
