LAP RNY COMPLETE
Hello to all. Just wanted to let all of you know I got home last night. Feeling a lil bruised and gassy but that is about it. I have absolutely no desire to eat....or drink. I am totally exhausted. The hospital stay was not a place where I could get any sleep. I was in an intermediate ward for the first day and that was nice. Then I got moved to the regular unit where the bells took about a half an hour to be answered...GRRRR. MOST of the nurses and aids were very nice but a few were Ohhhh just not happy to be working I shall say. Dispite all of it I was a nice quiet patient and very pleasent. Anyhow I am home now and need to get some of my meds started for the day. Water water water. I was released after being able to drink 8 oz in an hour and keep it down. Did it. I will post more tonight after I feel a little more up to it.
Hops on over to the Loser Bench.
Love..
Shele

Thanks everyone! I am feeling a bit better than I was this morning. Crushing my meds was the worst part of my day. I did go to the grocery store w/ dh and walked for an hour. Dh wouldn't let me push the buggy though so I held onto his belt when I started to get sore or real tired. Came home let him and the kids put away the groceries while I took my Roxicet liquid and grabbed an instant breakfast then headed up to bed. I was able to sleep 3 hours which was really great! Now I am trying to drink my water and maybe eat some pudding or some veggie broth. I already had an emotional breakdown. Felt horrible that I am unable to clean the house and take care of my children like I usually do. Eh....of course dh is yelling at the kids which makes me feel wonderful. I really wish I had asked someone to care for the kids for when I got home. They are stressing me out. One is crying and whining at my feet 24/7 and the other is fighting with her! And all I want is some quiet time for a few days. I KNEW I should have hired a nanny for post op. DAMN IT! Here I go....drinking my water...and some whatever I can. LOL
Hugs!

Hey There My Sweet Shele, 
I have been so worried about you and the not knowing was very hard. I am so glad to hear that everything went well and you are home. And most of all you are not HUNGRY. What a blessing that must be. I am so happy for you and now you will be a "Big Loser" like all the countless others that have gone before you.
The main thing you need to do now is 1. REST 2. DO WHAT YOUR DOCTOR HAS TOLD YOU. 3. MAKE SURE YOU DO YOUR PROTEIN (no matter how hard it is) 4. START YOUR WALKING AND DON'T STOP.
Okay, enough of me sounding like the "mother hen" but it just that I really do care about you Shele and I want you to do really good without any complication.
Take care and be in touch when you feel like it.
Lots of Love
Kathy
