Hey everyone' date=' I had my surgery yesterday, and I'm feeling pretty good. I had a hiatal hernia they found and repaired while they were in there. Not too many gas pains. I've been walking around a lot. Some incisional pain on the lower left. All in all, feeling good! Also, started out at 331lbs and was 307 lbs yesterday, so I was really happy. Good blood pressure and cardiologist said a healthy heart, so I've been in really good spirits. Since I'm in mexico I also got a tooth fixed for dirt cheap.

Anyway, good luck to you all, let's keep in touch![/quote']

How did you loose that much weight in 1 day??

I am feeling so good, two weeks now banded and today went for a follow up, I opted for getting the first fill, they put 2cc. She said I could wait two more weeks, but I find I am getting a bit hungry again, so I SAID PUT SOME SALINE..!! Incisions are healed, the only minor discomfort is the port- Not pain but like the area swells up, DR said it might take months for it to heal completely. I am eating small portions and before I get the pain in the shoulder warning I stop eating, so far so good, sugar levels are perfect!!! Lost 26 pounds since Dec 28!!! I am feeling so great!!! BEST BEST decision ever!!! I don't tell everybody only a few selected people...I won't allow anybody take away my joy!!! I just want to write to insurance that they should've approved me sooner, they took a year and six months....but everything is in God's time!!! OH and the filing didn't even hurt!!!!

Thanks, Mimi. I'm feeling good. Not hungry, which I hope stays that way. Are you getting excited?

Good morning everybody! I can't believe my surgery is tomorrow! I have to be at the surgery center at 6:30am! I have a tech question I hope somebody can answer. When I respond to the messages from my computer at work I get right onto the site without logging in, but at home I can't do that and it won't let me sign in. Any suggestions? I don't want to be off for a week and half and not be able to talk to everybody. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.
