 Hi There,
Well I have 5 incision sites and the site where my JP drain was.  I didn't have lap-band though so I am not sure what your surgery will be like; Honestly i don't feel any different until I start eating.  I had an idea that I would feel like my stomach is up higher considering where the pouch is, but I can notice anything.  I am really happy!!  Everyday I feel better and better...The only thing that is making me mad is this RAIN!! and I can't walk outside, so i have been doing laps around my house lol! Today I think my husband is going to drive me over to the mall and we will walk a little in there!  
Just remember after surgery to walk!  I swear to you, you may think it is the last thing you want to do, but it makes you feel sooo much better! GOOD LUCK let me know if I can help with anything else!
 -Stephanie

I am so happy that everything went well for you.  Welcome to the loser's bench!

Make sure to take your pain meds on time to help.  I remember when I didn't take my med on time the pain would come back really bad and it would take forever to go away when I finally took it. Just a few more days and you will be feeling so much better.

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.
