so i wweighed in at 224 at the hospital which in down 17 from when i started. Surgery went fine took about 2 hrs. Slept for 3 cycles of 3 hours each time. I have to share a room with a guy. I dont know what he is in for. The bed is the worst. My back is vvery sore worse sorenss than my front. So im sitting out in the lobby in a chair. Each time i got up i made several trips  around the floor since i was up 3 times. The all you can drink juice bar ( hahaha) doesnt come around until 730. So they gave me a 12oz bottle respberry juce. Yummy. Feel pretty goo right now. Hope i can go home this morning. Best medicine given so far is Gas-x. So much gas. Doing well. Talk to you all later.
