Had my surgery at 9:15 and got to come home around 2:30. All in all I'm doing well, there's a faint pain on my left side but other than that in doing wonderful!! I'll talk to you all later!!

That's great

I had a lot of post op pain for three days

Before you know it you will be skinny !

Great news! Thanks for letting us know how you did. The journey begins! I am proud of you!

Great job, just make sure get up and walk around a lot, it helps with the gas (and pains if you get them from the gas, my neck and left shoulder hurt when I got surgery). But it gets better!

Congrats....I got banded yesterday. We have to stay 24 in the hospital in Pittsburgh. But im home now. Glad to hear u are doing good. Keep posted.

Congrats! Welcome to the club! Rest and walk, walk, walk

Thanks everyone!!!! I've been getting up as much as possible but if I'm up for too long I feel a little sick. Doctor said this is normal for the first day or so, so I hope it goes away quickly. Other than that no complaints! Hopefully my pain stats like this and does not get worse but only time will tell!!

Glad to hear your surgery went well and your doing good. Take care

Congratulations. Your new life begins now:)

I got banded on the 10th...i had a small hernia repair and was released the next day. I messed up and ate a piece of turkey bacon but im moving foward. Wish me luck!

Congrats to all of you! Follow your post op diet the best u can because now your body needs to heal. Rest, walk in small amounts as often as u can, sip, sip, sip as much as u can all day. You may feel bloated for a couple weeks and a little more sore if u had hernia repair. Don't worry about losing weight now. You are healing, but it will come off!
