Hey Dude..congrats...

Ok give us a little more infor, LBL or Panni..with or with out muscle tightening..

It's def a biffere surgery than the WLS...pain is not bad...very restrictive, you get scared that you are gonna pop open...

Beam me up Scottie, is about 4-5 weks out..seems like he is treading water pretty good...

the only advice..the recovery is longer than you expect..not pain wise..jsut getting back to normal
