3 Months!
Sep 29, 2007
Well it's been three months since surgery and I am feeling really good! Down 51 pounds-yipee! My goal is to be in onederland by Thanksgiving! There have been a few ups and downs (scrambled eggs=unfill) but I couldn't be happier with my loss! Still struggling with regular exercise and eating veggies, but these things will come with time! I am scheduled for a "re-fill" (since I hadn't had a fill yet when I had to have my band emptied) on Monday. I hope it goes well! Dr. Simpson is the best!
Day 7!
Jul 05, 2007
Well I am finally feeling pretty good. Not that the last week was what I would call "bad", just different. I am able to eat more foods now, variety, so that helps! Of course my biggest struggle is emotional, someone has taken away my crutch! Oh yeah, that would be me! I had no idea how much I used food for comfort, it's sad. I am trying to stay busy and find new hobbies (ie. exercise!!) Thinking of even joining the gym around the corner today, we'll see. I have had some thoughts of "why did I do this?" but not many, they are fleeting. I can't wait to feel great, wear normal clothes, do normal things!
Home and Banded!

Well, it's official! I am a bandster! Surgery was 6/27/07. I am feeling pretty good all in all. A little pain, but nothing unbearable (knock on wood)! Have been on clear liquids for 24 hours which is ok. It seems my biggest diffuculty right now is I can't lie down, which I assume will improve with time!
