3 Day Post Op

I am 3 days post op laparoscopic assisted Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass!

Here are a few things I have preferred over others in these past few days. I have been dealing with gnarly muscle spasms, which I wasn’t prepared for, so im taking it pretty easy and bland when it comes to the full liquid diet.

# 1: Premier Protein Drinks: The cake batter has been the most tolerable for me. 🧁

# 2: Lemon Lime and Strawberry Jell-O. The actual Jell-O brand I can do, but other brands, my taste buds don’t like. 🍋🍋‍🟩

# 3 : WATER (I do drink liquid IV too but this along with vitamins are the most important tool for hydration and health!) 💧

# 4: Chewable Bariatric Vitamins! I tried capsules, couldn’t do it. These actually taste pretty good. 🍓

# 5: Extra Strength “Tylenol” between prescription meds. Stay on top of your pain meds, I learned the hard way 😫.

# 6 and 7: Weighted heating pad! Literally has been my saving grace with my spasms! 🥰

Day 3 post-op endometriosis surgery ❤️‍🩹
This is what healing looks like: bloated, patched up, and still standing. 🌸 My body is reminding me that recovery takes time, patience, and listening to yourself. To anyone going through endometriosis or surgery be gentle with yourself, celebrate the small wins, and know that every step forward

Not going to lie this recovery is a little more brutal than I anticipated 😅 Also I still have on one of my hospital bands because the docs said I have to wear it for 3 days so if an emergency happens they know I had some sort of anesthesia that I’m not supposed to get again in a certain time frame
