Day 3 Post Op Band To RNY Revision

Sep 15, 2014

I had a successful surgery (which means I woke up alive. lol) on September 11th at approximately 1pm. I was revised from the lap band (2009) to Roux En Y Gastric Bypass. Today I am 3 days post op and feeling pretty good. No pain... have barely taken any pain meds, I am able to tolerate most of the thingsI bought for post op and some things that I didn't tolerate just yesterday I can get down today like my Vitamin Water. 

Today I began my full liquid diets which came right on time because I began to feel the effects of not enough food yesterday. I woke up READY for a protein shake and had 4oz of that (in 2oz measurements) just fine. I also had my first sugar free ice pop which I could've had on the clear liquid diet but I didn't... That tasted AMAZING!!! Later on today I will have come broth with a bit of mashed potatoes in it and some more protein. Today is also the day I can also start taking my multivitamins. Since they are liquid (Centrum) I probably could have had them earlier on but I waited as instructed. Once i get to the "soft/puree" phase, i will transition to my normal gummies which or much cheaper for almost double the servings.
