    Default I知 a freshly minted sleeper today.

    I知 in the hospital for the night, but should be leaving around noon tomorrow. Surgery went smoothly. Post op my shoulders and upper back hurt from the gas, but my tummy has been pretty good. Haven稚 had any narcotics. Liquid Tylenol seems to be doing the trick. Became functional about !PM and have managed about 18 oz of fluids so far, plus a 3 spoonfuls of broth and 4 spoonfuls of SF jello.
    Was walked around the corridor loop and did fine so have green socks now and clearance to walk on my own. Pretty tired, but with lack of food, surgery and little sleep last night am doin OK.

    Welcome! Sounds like you're doing great!

    When you get home be sure to nap as much as you can. When not sleeping, walk a little and sip, sip, sip to meet you protein and liquid goals. I had a piece of paper on my kitchen counter to log everything I drank.

    And keep the positive attitude going, it's EVERYTHING! Best wishes. Just think where you will be a year from now, it's mind blowing!

    Congratulations and it's great to hear you're doing so well! I must say I'm impressed with you being able to get in as much fluids as you have already. I was struggling. It sounds like you are well on your road to recovery.

    Welcome to the loser's club!
    The name of your surgeon cracked me up... lol
    English is not my first language anymore, so I may and do make mistakes in my spelling, or say things oddly. Please ask me, if you want any clarifications.

    Hi Dutchie, yes I think that’s a pretty good name for a bariatric surgeon. I realized a few days ago that my subject says “sleeper” rather than “sleever”, but can’t figure out how to change it. I guess that was the risk I took posting shortly after surgery.

    I noticed that too, but I know it is impossible to make changes in a topic title.
    Don't know why though.

    But actually a recent sleever should be a sleeper too! Boy did I sleep that first week!
