Thanks guys! Had 1st BM today and noticed that I weighed a couple of pounds less. Think I'll just stay off the scale for another week or so. Feeling pretty good 5 days Post-op, other than the gas (wearing these Gas-X strips out). Actually, I already feel a little better than I did pre-surgury or maybe it's the Lortab elixir. Either way, so far vsg is one of the best decisions I've ever made. 😊
