Had a Roux En Y GB yesterday...
I've been sipping water since the surgery.
They're about to bring my first protein shake...
Gotta admit I'm a little nervous about drinking it.
I've tolerated the water and several pill meds so far.
They brought some crystal light earlier but it kind of nauseated me.
The oxycodone has been a Godsend :)
Excited... the journey has officially begun :D

Congrats! Take a sip and wait. You'll know soon after that. I didn't tolerate crystal light my first week. Now I drink 3 to 4 sleeves a day. Funny I was so scared to drink at first. I can drink pretty regular now - still sipping but much more frequent than the 5 minutes. Your body will tell you what works. Good luck and happy new year.
