I was the last one of the day since I had a lapband previously and he thought there may be some scarring. So I didn't go into surgery until a little after 3 pm. Got back to my room at 7:30 and got up and walked and then went to bed. Got up several times during the night to do my breathing treatments and go to the bathroom. That is the hardest part. Getting up and down.

There is a married couple and they got sleeved yesterday too. They both seem to be doing great too. I do have a little bit of gas but nothing too terrible. Im going to try to meet Elle31 today when she comes in for her pre-op. If not today I will tomorrow.

Now the fun begins!!!

Surgery Date: 4/27/11 Dr. Aceves

Congrats, I had mine on Monday and I am home and moving around and drinking. It seems like the 3rd day of no food (just liquids) started playing head games with me because it seems like I was moody as hell. Other than that my recovery has been pretty good. I hope you have an easy recovery.
