I am 8 days out and I am feeling good. I am almost in no pain at all. I do feel my port it is right in the middle under my bra line I was so happy that he put it there I really didn't want it to be onthe side that would have bothered me aot I know it is still akind of sore. I thought that I would be grosssed out by the port and I almost went with the RNY cause of that but now I am hppy that I went fo the LB.  I will put up pics up month to month to let everyone see the progess.  I am going to try to work the hell out of this band.
