Pretty good I think. No complications, just some minor discomfort after eating the first few days. It's getting better every day. The Staples are driving me nuts. But if that's my biggest problem so far, I'll take it. Feels like I'm starting to get hungry, but it's a different feeling. More of a mental hungry without hunger pains. Following the diet exactly though.

That's great I'm doing pretty good too was really bloated the first couple days but released some gas today so that was pretty exciting [emoji6] I didn't have any staples they used glue on my incisions so I luckily don't have that discomfort. I understand what you are saying about mental hunger I'm on a week of liquid diet so missing the chewing of food part but otherwise think I'm doing good

Yeah the bloating and gas really takes some time to get used to. I eat with a baby spoon and I get up and walk around after a few bites, it helps.

March 19th...revision from lapband to RNY. Originally denied by insurance when I was given a surgery date February 12th. Fought an appeal and won!

Do you know why they denied you? (If you don't mind me asking) I am in the process of trying to get a revision from band to bypass. Thanks!

And I am still seeking the very surgery I was denied on February 20th, not by insurance but by the doctors in a Bariatric center I had put my trust in.

I'm doing good had some major bloating the first couple days but it has passed the last couple days. Water intake seems to be doing good not really having too much pain besides the gas. Walking is going good on a liquid diet until I see my Nut on Tue
