G Maximus 8 Posted August 26, 2012 I'm five days post op, feel great, back to work at our business, no lifting. No pain, slight reminders I'm healing from time to time. Lost 12 lbs since Monday, 30 lbs total since started the liquid diet two weeks preop. No pain meds, drinking my liquids, sleeping great! Even on my stomach. Old habits hard to control while sound asleep. Been a great experience so far. Wife was banded same day, she doing great, but has more discomfort than me. Hang in everyone, it gets so much better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
