Spent 2 days in the hospital . This surgery wasn't bad! I just feel like I did 1,000 sit ups. This is the weirdest thing - after surgery I GAINED 6 pounds ! I joked with my surgeon , if this keeps up I'm going to want my money back. LOL He laughed and assured me it's from fluid. I can't wait to deflate .... ! Now comes the hard part , breaking old habits . This will certainly be an adventure !
