How long did your surgery take? My mother asked the PA and she said about 3 hours. I'm guessing that's worst case scenario, cause I keep reading different amounts of time.

45 minutes!

Mine was really quick. It was about 45 mins long.

My surgeon said it went so smoothly that it was 23 minutes "time on the table". Pre-op and recovery room added up to about 2 hours.

Mine was done in 30 min and i had mine 5 days ago.

About 3 hours for me this past Thursday! Also removed band, fixed hiatal hernia and removed gallbladder! It was rough recovering. But after 2 nights and 3 days in hospital, I'm finally home!

I was in preop for 2 hours, surgery was 2 hours but include hernia repair, and I was in post op for 3 hours. Then I was moved to my own room. It just felt like a nap once I was sedated. I wasn't really coherent until about midnight.

@@JellyBellyNoMore congrats on getting it done. What a relief huh! You are freshly Sleeved like me. Now let's kick off some poundage!

Mine took and hour.

Less than an hour for my sleeve & umbilical hernia repair.

My surgeon said he was done in 30 minutes.

I was in for about an hour and a half, maybe a little less.

I remember dreaming through my surgery, that was nice.

My surgery time was just over 40 min but in recovery for 3 hour very sick after

My doctor said it'd be a hour and 13 minutes he ended up taking a hour and 15 haha. I went back at 915 and got visitors in my recovery room at 1130.

My husband said I was in there for an hour

And I had my lap band removed

my surgery was about and hour and 45mins to about 2hours, including prep I believe. It seemed like it went by so quick. I was nervous as heck. They took me to surgery. About 5-10mins later I passed out. Woke up in another area, a few nurses asked me how I was feeling. I remember looking around drowsily and then as they wheeled me to my room I passed back out. Woke up prob an hour or 2 later. It was like it didn't even happen but damn that pain especially the first day was a good reminder it did! Lol!
