includes water. I'm trying to increase today. My only complaint is the staples holding my incisions together. They make it hard to get comfortable laying down. I am doing so much walking. Maybe that is why I'm not having major gas issues. The gas that I have is coming out at both ends without a problem. Lets see, I was 234 when the nut weighted, 218 before surgery and 212 now.

I'm home. My doctor had me x-ray and released by 9:30. I had about 2ozs of shake before leaving the hospital. I feel so good, I can't believe it. I haven't had any pain medicine yet today , but I will be taking some here soon. The ride home was very smooth. We stopped at the bank. Then we stopped at Macy's so I could get the magic bullet that I should have already had. Then we picked up my precription and stopped at food lion. I got out each time. My band holes 10cc's and it has about 4 in it now. Well, I'm going to take my pain medicine and lay down for a while.

I started my pre-op diet today. It is not bad at all. I would call it the south beach diet. I can have 2 small meals a day and 3 shakes. No carbs or fruits. I'm so excited. I have been looking at my pictures from the last 3yrs. They are not a pretty site. My face is disfigured from the fat. I almost look like a different person. My surgery is 10/1/08 and I can't wait. I have my family support in place and i'm ready to go. I will meet with my surgeon 9/23/08. I am praying everything goes well. I know God is my savior and he will make everything alright. I have faith in God. I know through God, all things are possible.

I can't believe how time is just flying. I sure hope the weight flys off. Anyway, things are going okay. I think I might be gaining a little weight. Seems like my clothes are getting tighter. I am so ready to get on the losers bench. There is this co-worker that lost about 70lbs. I noticed today the weight is coming back. I'm so glad I chose to have the surgery. I don't want no more weight loss disappointments. Oh yeah, my date was pushed up to 10/01/08. I already paid my surgeon with my flex spending card. Well, flex spending wants the money back. Said I can't pay that far in advance. The surgeons office will have to refund the money and get it again. I'm in school on-line. I didn't take anything hard. If my recovery is slow, some of my relatives should be able to keep me going. I hope my recovery is fast. I only plan to be out of work for 2 weeks.

Yippee!!!!! I'm approved!! I went to the mailbox today and my letter was in there. God is so good to me. I didn't blog much lately, but the approval was always on my mine. I'm so excited. I guess I will hear from the surgeons office tomorrow. I hope I don't have to wait to long for a date. Too everyone that is waiting, please don't give up.
