Doing good. I went for a walk today. Minor pain so I'm not taking the pain meds.

Loved Dr. Macik and Northside. Only stayed in hospital one night. Everyone was great. I have been lucky and off pain meds since I got home. Had major dry heaves when they gave me pain meds in the hospital. Trying to walk out the gas pains...those still hurt the most.

It`s good to see that you are getting your walks in, I watched some YouTube videos where some people developed blood clots because they didn't get enough walking in for circulation. Take it easy , and don't rush things.

My daughter stayed for 48 hoours after surgery. I know Dr. Macik only do surgeries on Wednesdays. He is a very reserved man (quiet). When did you have your surgery.

I had mine on Wednesday too.

YAY! I'm in Decatur. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

I'm in Ellenwood right outside of Decatur I am 3 months out (8/21/12). What gym do you go to.

One of my friends had the lap band surgery with Dr. Macik and had nothing but good reviews with him.

I started my process with Dr. Titus Duncan before finding out that my new insurance policy excluded wls..

Dr. Duncan did my surgery, he is awesome.

Hi Everyone! I live in St Mountain/Lithonia and I would love to join this group! I was sleeved on 11/16 by Dr Macik and he is great!

How are you doing? :)

I'm doing great. Didn't get sick last night and I got more fluids in. I'm happy about that! Thank you!
