Hey girli! I had my surgery back on 6/1. I was in more pain with this than when I had my gallbladder removed also but it does get better! Just keep saying stay strong and one day at a time! I was down in the beginning but when I went to the doctor for my one week check and he said I was doing so good and I saw results in the weight loss, my spirits have really lifted and I am excited about my new life journey. Can't wait to hear your success!
