bugsy72 117 Posted December 13, 2015 That was a long surgery! Mine lasted 70 minutes. It's been 11 days and I'm down 22 pounds (with pre diet loss included). Woohooo! I'm glad things are looking up for you, Mildred! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chicagochic 73 Posted December 14, 2015 My surgery was 5.5 hours due to other scar tissue from previous surgeries. My doctor knew ahead of time that it might be a lengthy procedure so had a second surgeon on had with him. I can't believe how good I feel compared to how much work needed to happen.
