I had surgery on December 20th. When I made the decision to do the lap-band my weight was 279. Day of surgery I was at 264. Today I am probably 5-10 lighter still (haven't yet weighed myself as I don't want to get stress myself out). Strange as it may seem I feel great. I am only filled to a 3 which is probably why I am eating probabably more than I should. I know I will have to get a fill as my doctor said average is between 4-6. Other than the first 2 weeks I really have no pain. The only thing I notice is that when I bend down on my left side I can feel the hardware inside and can be uncomfortable for a moment or two, but nothing major. Am really excited for this new chapter in my life. Just a little nervous that I haven't felt ill, or that too full feeling when I eat, when I hear that is really common.
