Hello all, I am home and it's done!

Had the VSG done Thursday, came home yesterday and as of today, have lost 7#s already. I was pretty relaxed when I entered the OR and the next thing I knew I was back in my room. My belly is black, blue and purple, but that's ok.  The worse thing so far is the gas. I has settled in my chest where your heart is and it feels like I am having a heart attack, but guess what. All I need to do is FART more!  Hehehehehe.    Walking helps that too.   Thank you all for all your positive thoughts and prayers. I had about 20 messessages when I got home.  I will keep you posted. Have a great day. Cindy

Glad everything went good.  I am new to the site and my VSG is scheduled for October 19.  Any suggestions for me? Thanks, Karen

Karen, Check out this website:  www.vsgfaq.com There's a lot of good info there.  Also the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy forum on here has some great people who are always ready to answer any questions you have. Good luck, Jo

Yes, read everything they give you and write down all your questions.  Make sure you follow ALL instructions to the letter. And after your surgery, walk, walk, walk! The more you walk, the better you feel.  Good luck to you and I will keep you in my prayers. Cindy

Glad you are doing fine, yes and walking does help pass the gas! Roz

Best Wishes and a Speedy Recovery.
