Update On Wounded Band

Jun 23, 2009

I have been babying my band and I THINK things are getting better.  Last night I only threw up after FIRST falling asleep....and that was just the water in my pouch from the drink I took 10 minutes or so before going to bed.  I know some bandsters report that they can't drink or eat for some time before going to bed......I have never had that issue until now. Could it be that my band is just tight like some others have their restriction?  I think most of the swelling from the irritation is down, and that's why things have eased.  I am still getting heart burn at times, so I am keeping a close eye on this.  I don't want to live with a too tight band, and I also don't want to rush down to El Paso if I don't need to go.  
I was actually feeling quite a bit better today, then I got some horrible news, and just like old faithful, my band decided to tighten up with the stress.  UGH.  It's still not as bad as it was.  Thank goodness!!  I am down to 169 pounds though!  LOL  YEAH!!  Love seeing a different number on the scale FINALLY.  Keep sending your good t houghts, it's working!!
