    I got banded on the 25th. It went super well. Got up about 1 hour after i woke up and was already walking. I have no pain, just discomfort due to gas and bloating. I feel like a balloon!!! I stayed in the ICU for the night and was feeling so good (compared to others in the ICU unit) that the nurses were wondering if i just got surgery. I finally convinced the doctor to let me go the following day. I know I have a good tolerance to pain but i'm wondering i'm I normal or what?? Getting my liquids down ok too! Strangely i've been craving cheese since yesterday..i know, weird! So for now, resting as much as I can and trying to drink as much water as I can. I'm SO glad this is over, I feared the worst and I think I was stressing alot for nothing. For those having surgery soon, stay positive, its not as bad as we think....
