I had the vertical sleeve gastrectomy on 4-8-14. My nurses and surgeon were awesome. My nurses really went to bat for me and personalized my treatment plan. I received Iv tordol and Iv acetaminophen. That stuff was awesome. I'm still a little sore. It's more like a really intense workout than having most of an internal organ take away from me.
The best part of this so far is I'm not hungry. I'm drinking my water and protien shakes. My fiancée has eaten mcdonalds, subway, and candy in front of me and I don't want any. I'm full and satisfied and it doesn't look good. That was worth surgery. Usually when I'm dieting I'm so hangry ( angry hunger) that I want to slap the person next to me.
I'm back home with my puppies. Time to heal and enjoy my three weeks off. Here are some pictures from the hospital.
Lava lamp and I hanging out in my bed prior to surgery. We only got 2 hours of sleep before we had to leave for the hospital.
Post op. When I get dilaudid, I turn into Miley Cyrus.
