Surgery went great and I feel fine. Was in and out in 7 hours. I took some GasX as soon as I got home, so no pain - yeah. This was the easiest surgery I have ever had. I am so happy. I've been drinking plenty of fluids all day with no problem. All of my fears and anxiety were for nothing - lol. Now onto a lifetime of health and feeling great and looking great. For me, this was the best decision I have ever made and the best is yet tocome. Have a good night everyone!

Hey, I was banded yesterday (01/30/2012) Took pain meds yesterday and slept and walked. I think it went great. I am so excited. Hope you had as good a day as I did.

Thanks - you too!

Wow you two are lucky that everything went so well. I was sick for days but now have 2 months under my belt and am feeling fabulous. Good luck to you both.

Glad everything went well for the both of you!!!

woot, woot!

I'm happy to hear your surgery went well! I was banded today too...woo hoo!! I'm a little sore, but it is definetly manageable! I am so happy to be on the banded side. I was a nervous wreck today. I was totally questioning my decision and so far I'm happy I went through with it!

I was banded yesterday and everything went great and i feel great except for being a little sore. Good luck to all of you.

Thanks everyone - and congrats to all of us on the banded side. Surgery yesterday, today was good - really good. Soreness relieved with liquid Lortab, no gas pains but took 2 Gas X proactively to make sure. I actually am staying with my daughter this week and spent the majority of the day cleaning her house and doing her laundry! Boy, I hope I don't pay for that tomorrow - lol. I usually tend to do too much too soon. I am not hungry but drinking plenty of liquids - hoping the not hungry feeling lasts a long time. I am so grateful this turned out to be so much better than I had imagined it would be. Stay strong everyone and good luck to us!
