CONGRATULATIONS !! happy for you !! remember to leave a bottle of Water and some life savers in the car for the ride home . i had the worst cottonmouth after surgery . ice chips and water helped in the recovery room, but i drank alot of water once i got home and sucked on a small piece of candy cane to help get some moisture in my mouth. anyway im 8 weeks out, down 15 lbs and feel great ! ( its nice when my pants started falling off and the compliments started coming in !"you're going to be a hot mama was the funniest one !" ) good luck to you !see you on the other side !

Thanks everybody, I am home now! I had the lap band put in and the iband done (if you don't know that that is google "iband" and "dr. Smith" he is doing some research on different techniques.

It was all great except the "gas bubble" pain.. it wasn't in my shoulder, it was all over my abdomen. I was at a 9 on the pain scale when I woke up. But although I'm still in pain I'm extremely excited, I've finally taken my weight in my own hands and will be able to do this. I want to thank all of you for your support and love, this forum is a special kind of place with wonderful people! I love you all!!

You must be doing pretty good if you are already back on here! Thanks for letting us know how it went. Good luck during the next couple of weeks! It will prob be the hardest part and hopefully smooth sailing thereafter!!
