Hi Everyone,
My name is Wendy n I'm going in for gastic bypass today. They rescheduled my time out 6hrs so I'm killing time w no fluids till then. Ughh!! If you knew now what you didn't then, what would that be? Looking for tips n advice.
So excited!! Thank you all :smile

Congrats on finally getting to the big day! I had a pretty easy recovery, but there is a wide breadth of recovery experiences. Prepare yourself for anything; plus, remember that after the first few days, nearly everyone gets significantly better as each day passes. Get up and moving as soon as you are able!
Good luck!

Congrats! Hope your surgery went well and recovery is going better! My recovery was also pretty easy. My best advice is to walk as much as possible. Liquid vitamins were my friend the first month as was GasX dissolvable strips.0

Congratulations! Mine was 2/19 and I've also had a pretty easy recovery so far. I echo Rob with moving around after surgery as soon as possible. It really helps get out the gas they put in during surgery and makes you feel so much better!0
