I haven't posted since my surgery on 1/25/12 w/Dr. Halmi (fair oaks hospital). The first couple of days were rough for me - nausea from anesthesia & pain meds. Released from hospital on 3rd day. sleeping was an initial problem because I'm a side sleeper and it takes a while before you could sleep on your side or stomach. Every day was a little better. Just follow your doctor's & NUT recommendations. I'm 9 weeks out now and I'm down 37 lbs since surgery. My exercise consist of walking & stationery bike. I'm off of my diabetic meds & cholesterol drug and my blood pressure meds have been cut in half. I thank God for making this possible for me to regain my health.

Dr. Moazzez placed my band in November 2008. I really love him! He removed my band last Monday and I'm hoping to be sleeved sometime at the end of July or beginning of August. My 90 program is up on Jul 9! Anyone use Dr. M for a revision??? He has a great bedside manner and his office staff is awesome. Good luck everyone!
