Sue Magoo 71 Posted June 9, 2009 Dot: Best wishes to you with your surgery. My only regret with my LapBand is that I didn't get it sooner. I love my band and my new flat tummy! Sue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustLooseIt 0 Posted June 9, 2009 You will be in my thoughts today. From the posts that I have read here I think staying in the hospital over night is a good thing..Well that depends on how good your hospital staff is. Here in my town they are great. I want to stay in the hospital overnight. Last time I had surgery I was so sick and didn't even know what day it was. They were pushing me out the door to go home. I never want to feel that way again. My surgery is on June 26th. I can't wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
