I am doing amazing! I am down 28lbs total 10day preop diet and 6 days post op! I feel great! Still get tired after doing too much so I can last for about 5 hours and I'm ready for a nap. But I know that will pass :) stay positive! You'll do great!

Wow 28 lbs, that's awesome doll. Keep it up! Oh I can't wait to see the scale move. Looking to shed 60lbs.

What is this swallow test that you speak of? I think I've only seen it mentioned once or twice, but have no clue what it is.

For my surgeon, the next day after surgery, hey give you a swallow or leak test. You swallow barium and they the X-ray Doctor looks to see if there is a leak, if not the you get to start your Clear Liquids.

I'm getting ready to be discharged. I had my surgery on Friday :)

Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST

Some doctors do it while you are still under anesthesia (mine did) so some if never experience that.
