2 days post op

So!!!!! My sugery was yesterday June 3,2015 which neans i am now one day post-op. WHAT an experience. My starting weight was 262 and after the 7 day liquid diet i got down to 249. Whoop Whoop!!! The staff here at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood fl and my surgeon Dr. Brett Cohen were PHENOMENAL from start to finish. I went into surgery at 12 noon and was fully awake by 4 pm. Not able to urinate until i was "threatened" with a catheterization and WALLAH! MAGIC LOL. I was up walking around by 10pm and i.must say that REALLY helped for the gas pain. Well, that and the dilaudid of course. Just able to start clear liquids today around 4 pm. Tried drinking straight from the cup which was a MAJOR fail. so i was given those little one ounce medicince cups to help me keep better track of my intake. Doctor came to check me out and i will be good to go at 7pm. i am ecstatic about the journey that is ahead of me!! i am going to work this tool that i was given to its full capacity! i thank God for this opportunity and i see wonderful things ahead of me. I Didn't really go into FULL detail but if any of you have questions PLEASE feel free to ask me ANYTHING no question is too personal.

Ciao, Angelica

I'm so happy to hear your enthusiasm!  You're going to do great, I know it.  I'm only starting week three post-op and was a bit depressed at your stage.  (I'm fine now.)

Keep up the great work!  Congrats
