6 weeks...and Bandster Hell!

Aug 24, 2009

Well, today I am officially at 6 weeks since my band was placed. I love my band. I'm not eating near as much as I was eating, I am not eating all the crappy foods I was eating before, and I have lost 23 pounds in 6 weeks without gaining even though my food intake has increased. On the other hand, I'm so freakin' hungry all the time because I have no restriction! I was scheduled for tomorrow at 4pm to go in for my 6 week visit and have my first fill. The thought of that appointment has kept me going the last week and a half. Then, shortly after noon today, the doctor office calls. They want to reschedule me to Friday @ 2:45! I said ok, hung up the phone, and not just cried, but bawled. I was SO upset! I asked the nurse that runs the WLS center if I could at least start exercising and she said yes but to take it slow and easy. I was told last week to wait until I see the doctor before I start exercising. Now that it was pushed back, I know I couldn't wait longer to exercise. I'm going to start tomorrow with my Wii fit. I'm really tired today--didn't sleep well at all last night. Maybe a good night sleep tonight will allow me to wake up in a better mood with a better attitude. But, for right now, I am definitely in Bandster Hell!
