I had my laparoscopic Roux-en-Y in 2004, lost 110 pounds.  Best thing I ever did for myself and my family.  Recovery was much faster then I ever expected, out in 2 days and although sore (the drain was the biggest pain in the butt), Tylenol covered my pain.  Go slow, follow directions and always eat slowly for the rest of your life, that way you fill up quickly.  PROTEIN FIRST ALWAYS!  Be positive, it will go great and you will be so happy you made this choice.  Let us know.  Please Email me privately if you would like to ask questions or need support!  I am so very happy for you.
