My experience was one I will never forget. I felt amazing the day after surgery. I went shopping paid a cabbie to take us on a tour of Tijuana. We got a cabbie from the hotel that spoke English. I spend my 4th day at the San Diego zoo and went to sunset cliffs. I have more energy then my boyfriend and he always had more energy then me. I've lost over 30 pounds sense April 27th. I've had know problems with keeping my food down, but I have followed the diet very well. The only thing that I'm have issues with is my stitches where the drainage tube was. It hasn't healed up yet. I used to suffer with heart burn really badly, I haven't had heartburn yet.Thank you for everything
