3 weeks out
Jan 06, 2008
Ok so its been 3 weeks and I have to say it was definitly a rough beginning to say the least. (will talk about that in more detail later) but the good news is I am feeling much better and on the mend.
The only concern that I have right at this time is that my hunger has returned and I CAN EAT ALMOST anything! Just not tons of it like before. I have not had one problem with food, well except for last night. I had a bite of tuna salad and felt very nauseated after. I couldnt finish it and that was that. I didnt force the issue.
I cant wait for my first fill. Apparently that is the magic behind this tool. Got to get to that sweet spot in all due time. I am looking forward to this journey.
I am back to work, have been for a week now and it feels pretty good. The staff that I work with at the hospital (I work in a area hospital ER and Psych unit) they have been very supportive. I am so glad that I shared this with them because honestly they have been great. When they order food out they always consider my feelings...(awwww) but I dont mind, I made up my mind to do this and now I am ready to live with my decision, but I appreciate their thoughtfulness.
Sooo, with all of this said, hopefully soon, I will be able to check back in and tell you about how great I am feeling and how my NEW and IMPROVED life after being banded IS! Thanks for listening.
