I had the band done on July 9th.  It's been 4 days and I'm feeling amazing.  I never had a problem since the operation.  Surgery started at 10 am, and before I knew it, I was in the recovery room.  I only ever received pain medication while I was in there.  I had no need for it since.  I even went shopping at Walmart after I got out of the hospital at 5:30 as I had to wait for a prescription to be filled.  I've been doing my walking without any issues and other than a little tightness in the chest area (due to being injected with air during surgery).  I have had  NO pain whatsoever.  I'm also not having an issue drinking.  I have no problems being able to consume 6 oz of soup or a smoothie for a meal.  Am I supposed feel this good???

I am also in Moncton, just signed papers for the surgery.  Hopefully the surgery will be this fall.  Perhaps we can meet up sometime.

I'm glad to see you are doing well. I'm only 2 weeks out and have just started puree, but I think I've hit a stall already.

Everyone (Almost anyway) hits a stall for a few weeks when they go from liquids to mushies.
