My first time being put under. The whole thing was no big deal to me but I had a friend they let come into the OR while I was under and also stayed with me during the recovery room time.

I'm got home around 4 pm the day after surgery and I'm doing ok, just very sore but I have Hydrocodone for that.

Oh yeah, the friend that was with me the whole time, his name is Jesus :biggrin:

Thx,

-39 pounds today. I have no restriction but I'm still eating small portions as tho I do have restriction.

I'm due for my fist fill October 7th.

dave

-44 pounds. Doc didn't fill me on the 7th, he said we'd wait til the 28th because I was losing weight at the rate of 2 lbs a week. I have NO restriction but I eat healthy and sensibly. I'm now up to 2 miles a day on my walking :smile:

Even tho the band itself isn't causing me to lose weight yet, it's a tool for me just knowing it's there.

Thx,
