Day after Surgery

Apr 21, 2009

So I came into the hospital yesterday at 5:30 am. I started my journey at 349. At my weigh in before surgery I was at 324! Everything went really well. Dr. Basa is absolutely wonderful. She was successful in doing my gastric bypass (RNY). I pretty much slept all day after surgery, other than when I had to get up to walk. The pain hasn't been too bad, and I've been able to get up on my own. This morning I was woken up at 5:25 am for some blood work. I love the people at this hospital. Everyone has been completely and truly wonderful to me, and I really appreciate them for that. I am still doing really well on the pain scale. I'd say I'm a 3 out of 10 right now. I will keep this updated. I am going to get up and brush my teeth. The only down has been that I was unable to eat or drink anything for the first 24 hours. I'm looking forward to having a drink this morning. Will keep updating on here as much as possible. Thanks for the supportive comments!
