http://www.squidoo.com/gastric-sleeve-bariatric-surgery-my-personal-journey ::: See link for detailed story on my weight loss surgery. I had vertical sleeve gastrectomy on March 10 of 2010. I now weigh 135lbs. I hope it will be helpful to others considering weight loss surgery.

This video is for those who are curious what it is like having a drainage tube removed, I had the removal of mine (by a home care nurse) recorded. It was not painful.

FYI - The removal and placement of my drainage tube is typical of most surgeries, not just bariatric / weight loss surgeries. Having a home care nurse to come in and remove it is also typical and not 'special treatment'.
