The best surgery I ever had. No bleeding, no discharge of any kind. I was up eating broth and liquids 4 hours after the surgery, walking the hospital hallways 6 hours after surgery to get exercise. I could have gone home in one day but my surgery pain relief meds wore off and I voluntarily decided to stay another night. I received some Tylenol infusions with my IV and 3 more pain shots. The next morning I woke up super, full of energy and my wife picked me up. We stopped and ran some errands on the way home, I was absolutely fine at home , no problems I showered and laid down to watch some tv and rest. Absolutely perfect digestion and bowel movements. Stay on liquids , you will feel great , the weight starts falling off 5 to 10 pounds per week , weigh yourself when you wake in the morning , check your sugars in the morning if you are diabetic and check your blood pressure in the morning and 4 times a day. Don’t focus on the bad or pain, that will fade in 3 to 10 days, focus on your weight reduction and how little food you have to actually buy and consume. Hooray!!!
