Well, it sure is Monday!!!!
But that's ok, all is good! Tomorrow will be 3 weeks post op for me, YAAY!!!!:clap2: So I think I will make Tuesday's my "Weigh Day" Hmmmmm, yeah that sounds good. I went out to an actual restaurant on Sat. night, and was somewhat nervous about it, but I done good, it was a Mexican restaurant & I ordered something called Plaza Chicken Salad, translated is lettuce, tomato, red onions & grilled chicken. I didn't eat it all & I had water with it. :spit: However, I sure wanted a Margarita. But anywho, all went well. The rest of the weekend was mainly and time spent with Clairice, my little Chihuahua.
Oh well, til tomorrow:wave:

P.S. Last Friday I bought this wonderful book called "Fighting Weight" by Khaliah Ali, which is Mohamed Ali's daughter. It's all about her having lapband surgery 3 years ago. She weighed 325 & now is 150!:clap2: I read the whole book over the weekend & it is "AWESOME"! By all means everyone should check this book out!:whoo:
Well, today was my 5th day post op. Thrush seems much better today. Tomorrow will be my first day back at work, gonna try it for a 1/2 day. Lucky for me, I have a desk job, but then again, if it were not for that DESK job, maybe I wouldn't have needed this lapband surgery in the first place! Anywho, will try it & see how it goes. Today's menu was: Soupy mashed potatoes, sugar free popsicles, protein shake. Doesn't that sound yummy:rolleyes:??? Oh well, on a brighter note, the scales are down 5 whole lbs since last Tuesday :clap2:. Only 91 lbs to go (shouldn't have threw that in, that was kinda depressing)!
I can't believe I only have one day left!!! My Dr. didn't put me on any kind of liquid preop diet (for some reason) but I'm thinking that from now til Tuesday morning, I shall just do liquids. I'm way excited Yet oddly very sleepy:notagree. Starting to think I have that Narcolepsy disease, LOL. Whenever I get really anxious about something I seem to want to sleep. Oh well, guess I'll get back to housework, trying to get everything caught up around here so I want have much to do this week. :washing:I live with a Chihuahua & she doesn't seem to help much with the chores.:dog:. I had a husband once, been divorced for 17 years now, the divorce was my fault however, I just couldn't seem to except his girlfriend into our marriage. LOL:D oh well, goodbye
Tammie:kiss2:
So, ok, today is my first day back on the job:phanvan. But it is only a half a day, so thats good. Well, this morning I strained a can of Chicken Noodleo's & a few of the noodleo's accidentally fell into the juice. WHOOPS!!!! So, I chewed & chewed & chewed & I hope I didn't mess anything up. But they were wonderful. Hey, if I was great at starving myself, then I wouldn't have had to have this surgey in the first place. :faint:I will not let this happen again!!!!
TTFN,

So, here it is Friday morning June 22. I am 3 days post op now, and am ready to either find a bullet to bite on, or find a bullet then possibly a gun to put it in & shoot myself with LOL:biggrin1: But I know it's gonna get better right????? It is gonna get better rrriiiiigggghhhhhttttt?????
So, must start walking more, got to get this air out of my body.I sorta look like a big old hot air balloon.:hurt Ok, so enough about my pain.......I am about to call my Dr. to see how long the bandages are to stay on. And if anyone read this, & can honestly say things are gonna get way way better, please let me know. I'm sure , in my mind anyway, that things will start to get better soon, but it's just kinda nice to hear it from others who have went throught this already.
OK, well have a happy day,
Tammie, alias Tgirl:)
