My first official post as a post-op!!!!! I had my RNY surgery on Monday and everything went very well. It certainly was a slow process once I got to the hospital and I seemed to spend a lot of time just sitting around waiting, but eventually my turn came and I was in the OR. The first night was really rough but things have gotten drastically better every day and today I'm tender but nothing unbearable (good thing since I wasn't given any pain meds for at home). All of the staff at the Richmond hospital were just fabulous and were so supportive. I'm spending a few more days down here in Surrey at my Dad's house and then will be heading home to Kamloops where I can't wait to see my kiddos!!!!!

Thanks. Everyday is getting better and is a new adventure. It is still very bizarre to look at the food that I'm allowed to eat and think that's it. I had tomato soup yesterday and looking at 1/4c of it and thinking but I used to eat way more than that at a time. I am enjoying that I can finally have some variety in what I eat again. Will have to weigh myself on Sunday after I'm home to see what my weight is now, hope it's down at least a little.

It appears that my tummy can make noises that I have never heard before!!! I'm starting to wonder if there is an alien in there!!! It doesn't hurt or bother me, it's just a lot of loud noises. Most bizarre and another glorious thing to adjust to after surgery.

That is totally what I can't get over. I used to think I was doing good at cutting down my portion sizes. Compared to what I am eating right now I was feasting before. I eat about a teaspoon full at any one time and the look of certain foods totally gross me out. I sure this will change but I am enjoying it for now.
