I just wanted to let everyone know that I got my RNY yesterday morning. I was in extreme pain afterward but I'm good now that they changed my meds. Still haven't been able to drink water until doc comes in a few hours to ok it. I am very excited about what's to come. Ready to work hard to get this weight off. I'm starting at 258, my high weight was 265, and my goal is 145-150.

 “Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”― Marc Hack

Hang in there! It only gets better! Walk as much as you can. It really helps. I had my RNY on 5/5 and those first few days are a struggle. Afterall you just had major surgery! You are on your way!

The best thing to get the gas moving is walking. I am about a week out and that is what has helped. Congrats and welcome to the losers bench!!!!!

Congrats! I am excited to catch up to you and get my RNY! I'm in the dietician meeting phase practicing chewing and sipping the way I'll have to after! I can't wait. So happy for you!

Congrats!  The more you walk, the quicker you will get rid of the gas.  Just don't overdo it.
