3 years later

So it is September 2009 and I have been banded for some time. I lost all the weight I wanted for my wedding and weighed 140 on my wedding day! I got pregnate and gave birth and am now back at 183. I recieved a fill yesterday and had forgotten how miserable it is.

6 days and 6 pounds

Okay so it is six days and six pounds later. I feel 98% better the only thing that is bothering me is the port. I had my port placed below my bikni line so that it would be unnoticable. Not like it would have been noticable on the side. Well, that hurts like a bitch, but other than that I am back to normal. I am glad I did this even thought there are times I would kill for solid food.

5 days post op

I awoke this morning starving. My stomach was making so much noise. I was dreaming of sauages and pancakes mmmm eggs. I started to cry. I am so hungry. Why do I have to be a fat kid? I went and jumped on the scale and saw that I lost 6 lbs. I thought okay I will make some oatmeal and blend it with extra milk. I will be fine. Its worth it.       Date Banded 11/27 221 pounds   Todays Date 12/3 215 pounds

4 days post-op

It has been four days since my surgery. I was banded 11/28, and I went to work today. I feel fine, just tierd:notagree . I would do anything for food:hungry: food, food, just a little morsil. I thought I would have trouble not drinking wine on the weekends, but I can give a F#*& less about drinking. I am hungery. I know this too will pass, but damn it sucks.

Day after sugery

The day after sugery was still paifull:think My freinds mother is a RN and gave me the best advice. She told me to take my liquid tynol and motrin gel caps at the same time. So the pain has been much better.

first day home

My first day home was the most painfull. I awoke after surgery in the recoverey room in so much pain. I never thought that I was a sucker for pain. I mean I have had (in another life) my nipple pierced, lip, navil, tattoos. I am not a weenee, but I guess I am. All I can think about is that eventualy I will have to go thought this all over again wether it be haveing it removed, rebanded, or if it slips or erodes.:faint:
