Day Zero!

I thought I'd share my lap-band progression via photos on my blog. I'm 30 years old, 6 feet tall, and on Day 0 I'm 235 pounds.   I'm also including pictures of my scars and tattoos to see how they heal & change.

Day 7 & 8

I'm one week post-op! Felt a little "pop" when i bent over to pick something up off of the ground which is freaking me out a bit. I think i may have popped a stitch on my band or port There is some mild pain right around where my port is and I really feel like holding the spot when I'm moving. I think its time to call the doctor.

The scars are getting much better. Now I just need to feel a whole lot less hungry and things will be good.

Day 10 - Aug. 12, 2011

I missed a day of pictures. Glue has come off of the one on the right side of my mid-line and the top one by my bra line. Honestly, i picked at them last night since the glue was wearing off on those two. They look pretty good, but I wish the one by my bra line didn't resemble a little volcano! I hope it goes flat soon.
