GOING HOME
Hello everyone ! 
I am ALIVE!!!
I am doing well... The night before RNY... I did not go to bed until 3 am & woke up at 5 am. Dr. Mamazza said the RNY operation was perfect. Spent 4 hours in recovery room because of the sleep apnea. Got to the floor at 2:30 slept all day into the night. 
I feel great...
The staff at the Ottawa Hospital from Pre admission right throughout to the Bariatric Unit were amazing.
I was comfortable with pain meds and had periods of nausea that were controlled by Zofran. One period of retching that was very painful and scary.
Hard to believe that I am going home today.
Sipping water & Tylenol is a challenge.
SIP?WALK?REST?TOOT??? REPEAT
I would like to thank you all for your kindness and support
I found you all made me feel good about this life changing journey.
With much appreciation 
Sandra

So far 80 pounds lost!
So glad that everything went so well Sandra. This year will hold amazing changes for you. This is the beginning of your honeymoon phase. Don't waste a single day of that phase and you will be at goal before you know it. Take all of your measurements now, and when you hit a stall (and you will, we all do) check your measurements again and you will see that you are losing inches.
