Hey everyone! I had my RNY on Monday the 3rd and came home on the 6th. I feel totally great. I have almost no pain, although I take a pain med at night just in case. I had a breeze of a time in the hospital and recovery has been so easy. My incision is beautiful (as far as incisions go, lol) and is healing nicely. I am on clear liquids until next Thursday and then I begin full liquids for a month. I *love* sugar free popcicles and jello. I am so happy I did this. Good luck to all of the pre-ops and healing vibes to all of my fellow post ops. Take care everyone!!!!!.. Sarah

This will be the worst part of surgery, I have a feeling. -- Sarah C. This may be the easy part sorry to tell you, but "a girl has to do what a girl has to do" so says my 7 year old granddaughter. Best wishes for a successful surgery and easy recovery.
