Hi all. I'm home from the hospital and recovering nicely. The surgery went very well. I still have quite a bit of pain, but the demerol helps. (Once I get down that crushed nastiness.) Just wanted to say thanks for your support and encouragement. I am anxious for my 3 week follow up so I can see how the weight loss is going.

I'm happy to hear your doing well. I hope you continue to do well in the rest of your recovery.
I came home on liquid hydrocodone. But demerol is nice.
Looking forward to your progress on your future posts.
Congrats and Good Luck.
