  1. Hi Mimi;

    It hurt! Im not going to lie! I did take the offered pain meds from the nurses the first time later that evening but could refuse later. I just felt really really tight all over! I think the gas hurt more than anything. My core muscles are really still pretty weak so I find the lack of strength more frustrating than the pain. 3 days out and the pain is minimal.

  2. Hi Shonette:

    No, not 50lbs since my band (I wish lol!)... only 20 since the band. I really started losing about a year before the band!

  3. Thanks for popping in on my blog! Glad you took the time to read! I am going to try to keep everyone posted and have to admit that I draw on the feedback from those who have been there and are going there. Its a big deal and not a silver bullet. I know it wont be easy either and am counting on my attitiude to get me through this. Motivation comes only from oneself!

    Keep in touc...
