Thanks everyone for the well wishes! I am finally home stayed in the hospital for a day. Pain not bad at all just of course a little gas pain but walking really does the trick. the worst part of my hospital stay was basically yesterday getting the upper GI to see how liquid was getting down my band. That stuff was nasty almost felt like I was going to throw up! thank God I didnt and I was able to get my 1st shake down and they sent me home. It was great to sleep in my own bed last night. I am a little sore at my incision sites but that is to be expected. I have six incision sites but from what I can see they are pretty small so hopefully will heal nicely and wont have any complications. so far NO REGRETS except wish I would have did this sooner! O yea I want to get on the scale but wont until a week out I want some of the swelling to go down before I get on a scale again! Best of luck to everyone with upcoming surgery! again thanks for all the well wishes!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
