First Fill 7/14/10

Jul 15, 2010

Had my first fill yesterday and it all went well.  I am glad I had the nurse numb me first as she was fishing around trying to find the port.  She gave me 2cc's, so I have been back on liquids yesterday and today, then back to purreed for tomorrow and day 4.  Then onto well chewed food, and praise the Lord I can eat a salad!!!!! I have been waiting for this day to come for several weeks now.  I am looking forward to eating something that CRUNCHES, and I can finally eat the tomatoes coming out of my garden.  1/2 of a toasted tomato sandwich....yummmmm.

As of this morning when I weighed I have lost 27lbs. 2 sizes, yet what I am wearing is too big.  I just purchased capri's last weekend, and they may now be too big, glad I only bought 2 pairs.  I Guess I need to try those on while I still have the receipt.

Overall this has been a great beginning on this journey to a healthier me, even with the allergic reaction.  I consider that to be a minor set back, yet easily gotten over with the help of zyrtec.  If anyone is considering having this surgery, I would recommend it, of course you need to research the procedures as I did and talk with your family and your Dr.  I know my  decision with family support to have this surgery has saved my life, and saved me from diabetes, and messed up knees.  Oh, that is a new one....I was able to go up stairs today without being winded and my knees not hurting, now that was wonderful!!!!!

Have a blessed day
