Hello, my name is Rhonda, I have a Realize Band

Jun 20, 2009

I finally got my band placed on June 17, 2009.  It felt like this day was never gonna happen.  I feel really good and feel so positive about the changes.  I look forward to being healthier and living life to the fullest.  I do want to record that it has been 4 days and I already  miss food and the social aspect of eating.  I hope that passes with time and a little work. 

Surgery went very well.  I've had no complications thus far.  I had one episode of nausea and threw up one time and then it went away.  I've been working so hard to get my fluids in, but I feel like all I'm doing is drinking.  My doctor and hospital staff were all great and very friendly. 

I am proud to start this journey!
