Talking I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I had my surgery on Friday. Doc says it was easier than he expected given my size. I came home on Sunday and am feeling pretty good. I have a horrible sharp pain in my right chest that prevents my from taking a deep breath or burping but my Doc says it'll go away? I really have to work on this ounce of water every 15 min. I'm not doing too good yet. Just thought i'd let everyone know and talk later

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Good news! It took me a couple days to get used to sipping enough fluid. Keep at it, you'll get there soon. Congrats!

Welcome to the loser's bench! I'm glad everything went great! My pain was on the left and it was better after a few days.

Hang in there, dude! You will be up and running in no time.

Try to take a couple little walks...that may work that chest pain out (it could be interstitial air from surgery).

Good Job on sipping!
Welcome to the losers bench!
