I'm banded!!!!

My surgery was yesterday and it was a success. I am in minimal pain and haven't taken any meds since 4 this morning. I have a LOT of gas but it is slowly coming out. I was only able to drink an ounce and 1/2 of some veg. broth. Throat is kinda of dry and sore and feels like cold/mucus is trying to come out but it won't. I will hopefully be going home today(keeping my fingers crossed). So over all I'm doing pretty good!!!

Hey Monique congrats on your surgery and i wish you the best with your journey ahead:)

Monique,

Congratulations and good luck to you in the coming weeks!  I remember the gas was by far, for me, the worst thing EVER.  But almost 7 months later I can tell you it's a long long ago memory!

Looking forward to seeing you post here more often and keep us updated on your progress!

Donna
