My surgery was on August 31 and I was switched from Lap Band to DS. I was in for 4 hours and everything went great. A day and a half and I am sitting in a hotel waiting to go home tomorrow. Dr. Stewart and his staff were awsome. He said I had a lot of scarring around the band but he was able to get it out without much trouble. I was up and walking within 3 hours of surgery and recovered very quickly that is why I was released so quick. Thanks for the prayers and God Bless

You so rock!!   Glad things went well.  

Congratulations on being not only a loser but a card carrying member of the LADS Rainbows & Unicorns club. (Acutally you have done so well, Steve says we have to come up with a new club like 'Unicorns wearing rose coloured glasses sliding down rainbows" for you.) 


Take care and come home carefully.  We can't wait to see you!

Welcome to the bench! 
Pick your surgery first, then your surgeon. Not the other way around.  
PS:... Potato chips should be a food group.

I'm tired of screwing with that damn health widget.
 I've lost 125 pounds to date!!!!
   And I'm UNDER 190 now!!!
