A drowsy bandster, but a bandster indeed. Just got home from surgery. Wasn't too bad at all. I can't feel the band at all and liquids are going down just like they always did!

I can't belive how ok I feel - a little sore but really just fine. I'm schocked I just had surgery this morning! I am sipping on a protein shake everytime I wake up from napping and doing a little walking lap around the house. It's scaring me how ok I feel - I keep waiting to feel awful (hopefully I never will)!

My recovery was a breeze too!! I kept waiting for the UGH feeling to set in & it never did. I didn't have gas pains & was able to sleep just fine. We are the lucky ones aren't we?
