First 1cc fill

I saw my surgeon today for my 2 week post op appointment. He said I had healed very well an dsince I have had no complains like pain or gas or anything else, he offreed me my first fill. I received a 1cc fill today. Not originally supposed to receive fill until my 6 week post op appt. Now I will see if that makes a difference. I really do not feel a restriction, maybe I am just cautiously eating and drinking. Maybe I have not reached that point yet!

10 DAY POST OP

HAD MY APPOINTMENT WITH THE NUTRITIONIST TODAY, JUST TO SEE HOW I WAS DOING. I HAD A SHOCKER!! THE DOCTOR SCALE SHOWED ME WEIGHING LESS THAN I HAD BEEN AT HOME... I HAD NOT WEIGHED FOR 2 DAYS, I WAS GETTING REALLY DEPRESSED. I HAD LOST LIKE 5 POUNDS THEN STARTED GAINING IT BACK... BUT I AS OF TODAY AM JUST AT A 6 POUN DLOSS SINCE LAST MONDAY ON SURGERY DAY!!1 DEPRESSION IS A BIGGIE RIGHT NOW THOUGH.

Banded!!!

Well March 12th was the big day. I was banded by Dr. James Pitt in columcia, Missouri. I beleive this experience so far has turned out to be one of my best decisions I have ever made. I was really scared of having surgery. Always afraid of not waking up or something going wrong. But on the lighter side. All went well. I had surgery and was home before 2 pm. I was out walking by 7 pm. Up the next morning at 5am unable to sleep. I was wired full of energy. went to get hair cut and colored, then did some errands, went my work to check on them, spent the rest of the day buring up energy. the next day I returned to work and attended my night class (4 hrs). I have all this extra energy since surgery. I have had no pain to speak of have not used any pain medications no gas pains either. Yesterday after work went walking with a co-worker we walked 4 1/2 miles. Fun fun!!!! I really cannot explain the energy rush I have now. I have started eating real food agian too. I think I bypassed my mushy stage. But I chew chew chew chew and take my time eating. I have not eaten much in quanity. I do make sure my choices have been high in protein. Amazing. I hope this only gets better. I made promise to myself last July tht by July 01 this year I would have a substancial loss of weight. Just for me!!! I think that is the difference this time around. I ma doing this for me!! Not for my husband or anyone else, just me!!!!

Insurance approved in February 2007. Scheduled for my lapband surgery March 12, 2007. Now the real journey begins..............
