The surgery lasted 3hrs I had the lapband removed and the RNY done

Pain was 3-4 out of 10

Gas pains in left shoulder

Was up that night seating in a chair and walked the hall

Came home on Thursday with a drain tube in my left side

Doing fine drinking fluids 4oz in a hr

Up walking and sitting during the day

I got Monday to have my drainage tube removed

I would do this again in a heartbeat

List 9 lbs since Tuesday

Good luck
