    Very good actually. Today is day 5. I started feeling a lot better yesterday. Gas pains are gone. Incisions are fine. Fluids are going down well. No real complaints.

    So awesome! This is a complete different feeling from the ball and chain/lapband. Hoping that your recovery is smooth sailing!
