I remember that feeling.

I was about a size 12 pre-surgery, but had to send hubby to Wal Mart to get Men's LARGE PJs for me when they let me out of ICU, I was so bloated after 2 surgeries in 10 days. Nothing I had would fit, and I WAS NOT wearing a hospital gown anymore.

27 litres! Holy bloated, mama! I bet you were glad to get rid of that! At least now you can laugh at it - well, if not laugh, at least giggle . ..

I could have used that hospital gown for a bedspread....lol.....My hands and legs were huge with water and one hand was leaking, if I was green I would have looked like Shrek..
I've lost the 27 liters and some more pounds, and still on lasix..trying to get back to the size I was in the 79 pic......well I can dream can't I...(I think that was a 40's song) lol...

Hi Star54, I felt the same way. I even used two gowns sometimes so my behind would'nt hang out. Plus all the monitors and wires on you had to have more gown.

LOL...My brother told me that as soon as I came out of ICU (drugged up )all I kept asking for were safety pins...so he goes and buys me yellow diaper pins......If I knew he would be that obliging I should have asked for money$$$$...lol. Funny, as I was finally walking around and safety pinned, there were more than a few butts in view.....

I've learned not to even bother trying to be modest in a hospital setting. It's just not worth it.
