Eating out card ?
I received a card but have never used it. I usually share with my hubby or my son. Heck, the other day we all 3 shared one meal. It's helped my hubby lose some weight (about 35 lbs since my surgery. ).

Pain?!?!
I had that. My doc said it was where they removed the stomach and it would be more sore, especially in the mornings. If you experience pain when eating and drinking then call the doc ASAP!

side pain
I had a similar pain. It felt like I pulled something. My dr said that is the side where my stomach was removed and I'd feel some soreness for a few weeks especially after I was more physical. It took a few weeks, but went away.
