First Fill... DONE!
Apr 02, 2009
Well, I'm home and I've had my first fill. Can I just say, "OUCH" and "Waaahhh"! JUST KIDDING... Actually, I feel so silly about all of the "fretting" I did because it was so quick and painless. I can feel the restriction (I'm aware of it) and notice it when I drink. Since I'm on fluids today and puree tomorrow - I won't know about solid foods till Saturday evening. We'll see... I'm just happy to have some fill before I go home. My surgeon offered to wait and do my fill when I return from my trip home and while I debated it for one second... I had to say no because that would undo a lot of my hard work and I'm sure I'd come back 8 pounds heavier! Can you just imagine - it'd go like this:Mom: Sharon, I made your favorites (she always has) - just look... Fried Chicken, Macaroni & Cheese, gravy & biscuits, and for dessert - CARAMEL CAKE. Now, I just cannot explain to y'all how good my mom's caramel cake is. OMG... This dessert could start wars on foreign soil. One sliver has 15,000 calories in it but it is SO good. Honestly, it is HEAVEN on a plate.
Then I'd be off to visit my Granny and she'd say: Sharon - have you eat? I've got some chicken and dumplings and cornbread (she makes my other favorites) and for dessert a peach cobbler. I'd have to eat some more at her house (so as not to offend) and then if I was lucky, I could get away without having to eat at my aunt/uncle's next door.
Everywhere we go back home, people are trying to feed us. At least now, I will be full and won't partakin' in NO SIN!
Blessings,
Sharon
