    That's great! I just started my pre op diet today so I'm hoping a lose a good enough amount. How was recovery?

    It was good. I was off pain meds completely by day 7 (and only taking them before bed days 4-6). I'll be 7 weeks out on Wednesday, and I really only feel some lingering fatigue at times.

    I never had any severe pain, severe gas, long-term nausea, or any vomiting at all.

    Oh wow! Hope I recover as well as you did! Congrats again and good luck with everything!
