Just thought I'd jump in and let you all know I have made it to the other side A okay!   :-)
I meant to post the night before surgery but my power was out. And just busy getting it all together during the days leading up to surgery on Friday.
Did have the Lap RNY. Was released yesterday (Sunday) afternoon/evening.
Haven't even touched that yucky looking bottle of liquid pain med. Don't really expect to.
So happy to be home.
I think other than some discomfort when I 1st woke up, and some nausea Saturday morning, the back ache from the bed was the worst.
They sure had a nice staff and Dr Gibbs is WONDERFUL!
Looking forward to getting rid of some meds and melting down to a pleasant/comfortable size 10/12.
Thanks for all your well wishes and comments. I'll be here reading!

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE  and welcome!

I never cracked the seal on the pain meds after I came home. No need at all!

Make sure you follow your instructions TO THE LETTER, and sip, walk, sip, walk.

We're here for ya!

Congratulations!    Glad you are having a good go of it.  I was amazed at how little pain I had too.  Listen to Susan and you'll be feeling really good in no time.

Thanks.... I am so happy to have the surgery behind me and a whole new start in front of me. And for once I'm happy to be on the looser's bench!

I've come to believe with very little contact that Susan knows her WLS stuff.

I probably "look" like I'm more sore than I am. Actually I don't really feel that sore, just babying myself and taking it real easy. But I feel fine, like I could do just about anything that I'd care to do. But I tend to believe in "better safe, than sorry".

Thanks again!   :-)
