Ok I have been doing my post all wrong I finally figured out how its supposed to go so now you guys can leave me comments. I dont have a whole lot to report im on soft foods and just cant seem to stop eating refried beans lol talk about gasy lol i go for my first fill on the 19th of this month i;ll let yall know how it goes

Update time yall ok I went to my 2 week post op appointment this past Wednesday and after sitting there for about 2 hours I was finally seen. I don’t know they were just extremely busy or something it was ridiculous anyway, first they did my sonogram on my legs to check for blood clots ALL CLEAR, then I went back out to the waiting room then the nurse called me back again and she asked me to step on the scale and I was like WHAT!! no this scale don’t say 361 that means ive lost 24 POUNDS Yall I had to step off and step back on again I was amazed . I was calling everybody that day telling them I know they was like so what but I didn’t care I was overjoyed. My surgeon wasn't in so I spoke with the pa she just checked my incisions and congratulated me on the weight loss and then told me I can move on to soft foods (which I had already done lol). I know I still haven’t been eating enough calories but I will I promise until next time Love Ya.

: CONFESSION TIME!!!! lol ok I have been on what has supposed to be my liquid diet for 2 weeks now Oh my god I have never missed chicken and eggs so bad in my life LOL I did cheat (I know bad girl) I had some Pringles I really hope it didn’t affect my band or my healing stomach but I just wanted something salty and crunchy and hell you cant crunch on chicken broth (if you can sweetie that aint chicken broth don’t eat it ) my appetite is creeping back im so glad I get to have food starting next week my mama keeps saying “you need to stay on liquids as long as you can that’s more weight you will lose" meanwhile she’s eating a big ol' hamburger and fries in my face LOL.I know she mean well but man its harddddddd. And if I have to eat one more thing sweetened with splenda IM GONNA FREAKIN SCREAM!! I was so sick of the sugar free movement I went and got me some orange sherbert I know I probablly shouldnt have but at least it wasnt Blue Bell vanilla ice cream (ummmmm blue bell) LOL anyway I go for my first post op visit next wednesday I hope I have lost something I know i have i dont have a scale at home and im not about to buy one "I WILL NOT BECOME A SLAVE TO THE SCALE" Im just gonna judge by my clothing and let that work for me :). My incisions are so crusty im just peeling off my liquid bandage and I know im not supposed to but its so dry and crusty they dont hurt any more just the bigger one is still sore I guess my port is under that side. Well these are my confessions or should I say my rants LOL I will keep you guys posted Love Ya

Hey yall im home and banded feeling better everyday my surgery was on Monday I came home the same day my mom(aka the food police) has been taking good care of me I still really don’t have much of an appetite but I am drinking lots of water trying to keep from getting dehydrated. My surgery was a breeze the last thing I remembered was being wheeled into the OR and switching tables then I was out like a light and woke up with 5 holes and a lot of drowsiness. I then waited for a room in recovery and slept most of that time I didn’t really have a lot of pain it hit me the next day I was drinking hydrocodine like it was kool aid LOL but all in all it wasn’t to bad ive been up and walking around since day one but im getting sleepy and my butt hurts sitting in this chair so I will yak at yall later :)

Happy Memorial Day everyone!!! Its count down time for me you guys one week from today and I will be having my surgery and I know all my friends will be glad when its over with so I can shut the hell up LOL but that’s how I get over excited about stuff but can you blame me ? :)

I’m backkkkk did you miss me lol anyway let me tell yall what stupid thing I did being the fat girl that I am ok before you go get you abdominal sonogram they tell you not to eat past midnight so they can get a better view of your bile duct or something like that but the lady who was going to be doing my sonogram told me not to eat past 7 the morning of my sonogram because my appointment was at 2 in the afternoon why at 10 am I was awaken by turkey bacon eggs and 2 big ass pancakes my sister made (not knowing I wasn’t supposed to be eating) and I ate just about all of it BUT I really did forget that I wasn’t supposed to eat my damn self LOL so about 30 minutes later I said OH S@#* I wasn’t supposed to eat that so im calling the docs office to tell her what I did she laughed and said I should be okay my sister is cracking up and im like you little witch its all your fault LOL. Now how fat was that? LOL. Anyway when I had my sono she noticed I had a gall stone which I already knew was there it never bothers me so I didn’t mention it but she gave me a prescription to get filled to try and dissolve it (note to self drop off prescription) they also did a sono of my legs to check for blood clots and I was laying there like dang she pressing hard on my leg then she finally said “girl you have a lot of muscles in your leg" and I said yep thanks to kiest park and my mama (she made me walk kiest park with her everyday crying and all ). After the sonos I went to the required nutrition class which had 4 other preops there I was singled out because I was the only one there for lap band everyone else was rny so that just gives me more determination to make this thing work to show GREAT weight loss is achievable with the band I like the nutritionist she was very informative then in the second part of the class came the psychologist :( im sorry but I think she is just plan weird LOL she jut seems like a very lame person I know I know I shouldn’t judge but you guy should hear her talk I was so wanting to lie down on the table and go to sleep on her butt. Anyway now we wait until the 4th of June I’m so EXCITED :)

5-23-07: Its me as if yall didn’t know that lol well today I had to do my pre admitting at Baylor I did my ekg.chest x-ray and blood work im so getting good at getting blood drawn I don’t cry anymore or even move I just look away and its over in a flash I know I know im a little to old to be still crying when I get poked with a needle well dang it your never to old LOL tomorrow I go do my abdominal sonogram and Doppler sonogram of my legs I will let yall know how it goes TTFN

Ok I finished my consultation yesterday guys Dr. Kuhn seems like a nice guy when I got there of course I had to fill out a million papers I felt like I was signing my life away everybody in the office was pretty nice the psychologist was kinda different I didn’t have to complete a whole long list of questions like some people had too do she went ahead and cleared me saying she felt I was competent but it really felt like she was trying to sway my decsion to get lap band over rny and of course i wasnt budgeing at all .It seems like the pa and surgeon was shocked that i have no major health issues being that i weigh so much it was kinda funny though I had to get blood drawn and i did pretty good i didnt even cry or flinch which i sometimes do LOL i guess im growing up LOL. Another funnyu moment was when doctor Kuhn asked my did i have any questions for him then i pulled out my list and said "oh about 14" lol he was impressed with some of my questions even the ones that i had to ask him what it meant LOL I thank everybody on oh for giving my questions to ask from the lap band board you guys are all sweethearts :)
