I got my surgery date!!!

Okay well first things first this is my first journal.. To start things off my name is melia and I have been over wieght all of my life.Although i have never been as heavy as I am now... So anyways I had never even heard of this surgery until my aunt and grandfather had it done.. They look wonderfull!! So now they both have it done now and this is how it all started for me, last christmas my grandfather pulled me asside and gave me a book on the lap band and told me that this is something that he and my grandmother wanted to gift me with.. I was speechless I think for the first time in my life..lol.. So now here Iam 2 weeks away from getting my own band.. Iam having this done in everett washington because that is where they had theirs done ,and also because it is one of the best places in the us to have this done at. I got to meet my surgeon and he is awsome very open honest ans straight to the point..ok well I'm going to end this for tonight i'm really sleepy.

I did it!!!!

Okay, so this is a little late but better late then never I always say. So I had my surgery done on july 6th 2006 everything went great doc was wonderful.But I was dumb I felt like no pain after surgery and they told me that walking was a good thing after this operation so ok I will admit I did more than I should have but as I said I had like no pain..lol.. I woke up the next day and I flet like someone had tried to kill me in my sleep my legs hurt so bad that I could barely walk,:help: so when the doc's office called I told them what was going on the nurse then told me she was going to have my doc. call me right back and he did within like 5 mins. this place is awsome ! So when the doc. called me back he told me he wanted me to come to the office LIKE RIGHT NOW!!! So me and mom hop into the car we get to the doctors office and we are waiting to see dr. michaleson (my doctor) and while we are waiting the receptionist looks at me and says honey you look like you are in pain and I told her that I had just had my surgery the day before she kindda laughs a little bit and she says oh! She then tells me she remembers the day after her sugery too and she told me she felt my pain.. she told me heer story she has lost 143 pounds so far! that gave me so much hope and at that time I was wondering what I had done to my self.lol!! That is the cool thing about where I had my surgery done just about everyone there has had the surgery...which means great fountins of information in my way of thinking... ok well I'm going to end now.. P.S.I'm 2 weeks out and have lost 14 lbs. so far and feeling great I would do it all again in a heart beat.. and I should just tell everyone that I had to get a leg ultra-sound done on each leg just to rule out blood clots I had none thank god.. melia:)
