My surgery went very well. My husband couldn't be there so my doctor told my best friend that mine was a "text book" surgery. I have felt some pain in the incisions, but nothing else (no nausea, etc). I have even been shopping at Target and today I walked around the neighborhood. I got a little dizzy from overdoing it, but recovered quickly. My doctor makes all of his patients spend the night in the hospital and I was so bored and wanted to go home. The was another girl who had lapband right before me and she seemed to have a much tougher time. She was about 10 yrs younger than me and she hadn't had all of the surgeries that I have had to compare it to (2 c-section, apendectomy in 2005, knee surgery, and my tonsils last month). This was the least painful of them all.

Anyways... all is good. i am glad I did it. I have lost 20 pounds since I got my tonsils out on June 20th and I am ready to lose more.
