:thumbup::biggrin:Hi everyone !! I had my surgery yesterday. All went well, and I am feeling great. NO gas pains for me yet. The only time I am sore is when I get up from laying down, or trying to turn over. I had a little upset stomach last night, so now I am keeping that cream for nausea on my wrist. Had a headache this morning, and still feel groggy. Overall, this surgery is a piece of cake. :thumbup:

The great news is I am not hungry at all. Normally this time every morning I am starving. Been sipping out of my grandbabys sippy cup. It works great, allowing me to sip the amount I should and not over sip.

Good Luck to everyone that will be banded this month, you're gonna loveeeeeeeee it!!!

OMG, I have so many questions!

1. Where did you find a sippy cup that didn't have an "outie" that is basically a hard nipple? I've been looking everywhere for the kind that has a lid that sinks into the cup so that it's more like actually drinking from a cup instead.

2. I have to get some of that cream! What is it and where do I get some :thumbup:

Pj...I'm glad everything with well! My big day is tomorrow!

Lanakila-for the kind of cup your looking for, you may want to try the Disney Store or something like that. Or a starbuck coffee cup I've seen small ones.

Thanks for the update. I am 2 weeks away and starting to get nervous and anxious. The sippy cup idea is great. I also got kiddie "sliverware"---much smaller spoon and fork. They work real well. Also, I went to a Goodwill and found some small cakeplates that I already use as my dinner plate. Good luck and keep up the good work.

I'm off to Starbucks right now! I have alot of shake stuff that tastes good, but the protein smell is just blecky. I hope they have the small one that you mentioned Helen. :thumbup:

My wife also purchased some small plates, bowls and small olive forks at Kohl's.

The Sippy Cup that I'm using has a spout. It doesn't leak, so I have to suck it out. very small amount which is great.

The cream for nausea was a prescription from the Dr. that and my liquid vicodin.

Ask your Dr. its great !!

Don't be nervous about surgery, nothing to it !!

It's 2:30 pm here, still nothing to eat all day except Isopure, Jello and I'm not hungry at all.

That Sippy cup is a great idea, I'm adding it to my list of purchases pre op.

Thanks PJ!
