I did it!!  Had my band removed and sleeve peroformed yesterday by Dr. Ortiz.  Have to say so far it has been extremely pleasant.  More like a spa atmosphere in my hospital room! (new age music and a small waterfall)... very relaxing!

It's weird, but I have had NO pain or nausea

that's it for now... just got out of the clinic and checked back into my hotel room.  Think I'll go lay down for a while.

thanks for all you support everyone!

Hurray.  I bet it's the good drugs still but maybe not.  Anyway, enjoy the no pain part because you may end up feeling like you have been run over by a semi.  But not everyone gets nausea.  One way or the other, hurray.  You are on your way to getting healthy.  Rest, sip and walk.  You will be 100% in no time.

Thanks guys! I'm still doing extremely well!! I'll have my drain out on Saturday, then will catch a red-eye back to Atlanta late Sunday night.

The hotel (Marriott) is AWESOME. I just finished eating a large bowl of chicken broth and a homemade watermelon Popsicle.

I seriously can't believe that I still have had NO PAIN!!
