My operation was fantastic and 5 days after I have no pain! No left shoulder hurting, no pain where the stiches are, no pulling on the wounds . . I am totally amazed at how well everything has gone. I even started sleeping on my tummy after the third night!

I went into hospital Thursday morning and went home Friday evening. From the time I got to my bed after the procedure I have had nothing other than Panedol! And I stopped taking that on Saturday!

I had to argue with the nurses after the operation when they kept trying to feed me food. They kept telling me "But it is in the notes that you are to eat!" And I took out my lap-band book and tried to show them that it was to be fluids only or they woud damage what I had done. They kept bringing the food. LOL I just drank the broths from the soups but left the chunks and ate the jell-o and ice cream. I survived. :confused:)

I have had some beautiful friends make me some fantastic soups since I have come home and I am loving it! Cream of Broccoli, Cream of Cauliflower, Pumpkin - yummy! And all pureed and smooth as anything.

I feel like a million bucks and am so happy about how this has ended up!

AMAZING!
