2 1/2 Weeks Banded!

I was banded on September 17th 2010 by Dr Speigel in Houston, TX. It was definately an experience. My last preop meal before my liquid diet started I had my Dad make his homemade Fried Porkchops & Rice & Gravy. I was in heaven. Then three days on clear liquids. Wasn't that bad, atleast there was a goal ahead to reach. The day of surgery I woke up in the recovery room thinging "What the hell is wrong with you Billie (me), Why on earth would you put yourself through this torcher. There is a foreign object in your body, and to top it off, you have to go through this crap again to have it removed." I was extrememly worried and scared. But every day after surgery was so much better then the previous day. The gas pains were eased by walking around, as were the nassea feelings. If I could burp, I would feel 100 times better. Its a totally different world burping with lapband. (tmi I know) but it is!! For those of you who just went through it, or are going to do it, just remember each day gets so much better. I'm barely going to reach my 3weeks post op on Friday and I've been eating solid foods for a week now. I feel like I'm over eating. Its time for a fill already, but I have to wait one more week. Keep your heads up and there is a brighter path to come!! Feel free to email or messageme anytime! I would love to have friends who are goign through the same thing as me, considering I have no immediate friends who live close and have had lapband,gastric, ect... :confused:

Liquid Diet 09-14-10

Day 1,First 2 hours: Lots of ups and downs already. Had to break the worst habit ever which is fast food breakfast stop on the way to work. Its hard to remember your on a liquid diet when your so used to your routine... But I'm doing it so far, and its gonna be a long day ahead of me, but its all good because I'm gonna look like Barbie ~!!:thumbup::smile::eek:
