5 Days Post-Op Update
Aug 16, 2010
I got my RNY gastric bypass surgery on Wednesday August 11, 2010. I was in very minimum pain the days in the hospital, however, as soon as I arrived home, a lot of pain rushed over me. I was so hungry, I was screaming and crying Saturday and Sunday. I woke up today, first day off my Percocets (willingly, haha) and I feel as fabulous as a person can after surgery! Considering I am only allowed to eat jello, ice pops, broth (which makes me feel sick to my stomach) , and delicious water, I have taught myself to shove down a cup of the pre-made jello within a half an hour so I don't feel too hungry and become too bitchy to my fiance and mother. I have already lost 15 lbs (probably water weight, but who cares!), which makes me feel super motivated and thankful I did go through with this procedure. Thats all for today, I suppose.love always, samantha
