  1. Happy 60th Birthday davrik!

  2. I was banded Feb 29. Went in at 9AM, out at 10. Home by lunch. Took a nap,and went out to dinner with wife. Had a delicious glass of Water. Went shopping Saturday and went out to a concert Sunday. Back to work, Monday. Was 347 in December, 339 in January at first consultation, 331 at pre-surgery consult on feb 21. Weighed 315 on March 6, a week after surgery. Never took or really needed pain meds. My Doctor, Walter Rose, seemed pretty darn good, so far. No stiches, just glue.Five holes, one 2 inch, 4 one inch or smaller. Shower after first day. sleep great on my side, feel good after sleeping. Walk at least 30 min every day. Feels better after walking too. Some gas pain, especially in evening, but now that I can add in Slim-fast shakes and mashed potatoes..that helps. All vitals have returned to normal..BP is 120/70. Cholesterol and blood sugar are perfect. (I guess water and broth did that!) Blue Cross Blue Shield was great - paid all but 10%. It has gone so well, I almost expect to be hit by a crashing airplane or for my band to explode. I hope this good stuff continues. Update after my first post op appt next week. Thanks to all those on this forum that have helped with comments and postings. Bob
