Surgery Done!
Rny all done. I'm at St. Mike's and doing OK. Had a bunch of Nausea last night. Slept till midnight and then was up every 30-60 minutes. Either with pain or having to pee. I have 8 incisions. I also have been peeing blue and green. Lol I'm allergic to penicillin so they gave me something else and that's why.
My throat is sore from the tube and I'd love to guzzle water but can't. No toots yet but I have been burping.
Happy to be on the losers bench.
RNY Jan 16/17 Surgery @ St. Mikes with Dr. Rotstein. Pre-Surgery -20lbs & Optifast -15lbs. Year 1 Loss after RNY: 131lbs

Welcome to the loser's bench. I was saving a seat for you. Remember, walk, sip, toot, rest, repeat. I'm sorry but blue and green pee is funny. A few more colours and you can pee like a unicorn.

Blue and green pee is funny! There's a Dr. Seuss story there somewhere, lol (maybe the sequel to Green eggs and Ham?).
Take care, and congrats!
