Everything went really well. I ended up not having any drains! That made me happy. I had a rough time coming out of anesthesia, but once I did I was up and moving and didn't stop. I thought I would be in the hospital for 2 or 3 days, but I came home the next day.

The gas pain wasn't fun, but I got through it no problem.

So now what I'm wondering is how do I sip and not take in air. I have been trying, but I always end up burping every time I drink.

I'm not worried about loosing weight. I'm mostly curious to see how quickly it's going to come off.

Wow, what a great report! Congrats!!!

Congratulations.

This is fabulous to read! And so encouraging to those of us still waiting for our surgery. I hope you continue to thrive and recover smoothly!
