Hey everyone. My name is Emily. My husband Josh had his this morning. I'm so proud of how well he did. We got there at 6:00 and surgery at 8:00, and left at 11:30. He was up walking around and drinking water. He's sleeping now, but he's been doing awesome. He said he's a little sore and it feels like his stomach is puffed out (from the air they blew him up with) but other than that, he said it wasn't too bad. I did his week-long preop diet with him and I lost 8 lbs and he lost 14. So, already we're doing well. Good luck to all of you. We used this site a lot after he found out he was approved, which only took about three days. About 4 weeks from start to finish. You're information and stories really helped him a lot and we hope to be helpful to someone too. I'll keep you guys posted on the progress and if we run into any snags.
