Mine was done on October 14 2008. I had a 4 week preperation diet, Salad and Optifast. So on my first weigh in prior to the prep diet I was 143 kg, I wieghed myself today November 16 and I am 117 kgs, So yeah its going well so far.
As for side affects, I was in hospital for 5 days in total as I was swollen and unable to keep anything down, So I was on a drip and anti inflamitories, However my wife had hers done a week before me and was only in hospital overnight, another friend of mine had it 2 weeks ago and he was also only overnight. It's still worthwhile having done though. I have noticed if I do not chew properly I end up throwing up, but its not all acidic like a normal throw up as the stuff never makes it to the stomach.
