When I woke up I felt good no pain,,,,, NONE....... at about 3 hours after surgery I was walking the halls of the hospital and felt really good, considering I had just had Lap RNY and Lap Cholecystectomy( removal of gall bladder).... wow I thought this was pretty easy.....
not easy but painless. I did very well, the next day they removed my catheter and allowed me to continue to walk all I wanted,,, feeling good
The second day they fed me some liquid and I kept it down just fine so YYYYYAAAAHHHHHHHH I got to go home. WOOO HOOOO
Came home expecting I would eventually have pain but none still. I went to Costco the next day with my husband and we bought my first scale......yes first ever. Before I was always too embarrassed to weigh myself.
what would I find....
Came home and weighed myself and wow 8 pounds off in 3 days. Ok I thought water weight and I haven't eaten for 5 days so yah I would have some weight loss......
I went to my 1 week post op appointment, I weighed 260 pounds 15 pounds loss........... wow pretty good. I joked with my surgeon and told her I want her to show me the Operative report because I feel too good for her to have done anything....
Now at 1 week and 4 days out I now am at 252.4 pounds
Pre op weight 280 pounds
Day of surgery 275.4 pounds
Current weight 252.4 pounds
Current weight loss: -23 pounds
yes I am on my way to a healthy life for me and my family...............
I just wanted everyone to know my story in hopes to help others.
