@@minniegirl you don't have to drink a lot of the stuff for the leak test, maybe equivalent to 2 shots...but everything besides that was fine. I came home on Saturday (1 night in the hospital) and have been doing well. My stomach is still a little sore but it's getting better each day. Have to remember not to try and do too much to soon because I can definitely feel it!

I just had surgery on Friday, 2/6, I was only in the hospital 1 night and came home yesterday. I feel pretty good just a lot of abdominal soreness. Feels like I visited the trainer from bell and did a bazillion sit ups and then some more. Getting used to taking sips of liquid instead of gulps is challenging but I am sure I will get used to it. The worst part for me was the leak test they do and you have to drink this barium dye stuff so they can see if there are any leaks in the sleeve. I had nausea and didn't throw up....until the leak test. ???? good luck!! I am sure you will do great!! ????
