Thank Queenie-Shelle thanks for ur prayers i really wanna go home to my bed =)

Good luck and I hope and pray for a speedy recovery! I know immediately after post-op that initial week or two are the hardest, but it's almost all down hill coasting with an occasional bump or two. You're going to love your sleeve girl!

Thanks everyone so i'm finally at home, such a great feeling to be back =) i am feeling pretty good i would say the pain i feel is mostly sore from the work done in my tummy and a little bit of chest pain but its because of gas. I had a little bit of a fever so they wouldn't let me go until today and until i could drink 2 shakes and water at the hospital i barely have my voice, but i am moving around much better on my own =)

Glad to hear you are home and doing well after a few problems. I hope you continue to get better & lose lots of weight.
