Today I feel great and have for about 6 days, finally sleeping through the night and that dreaded gas is finally gone. All the stapls have been removed and feeling like a normal person. Am down 15 pounds for Spet. not bad considering I was banded on the 14th. My goal for Oct is also 15 pounds than for nov and dec I will reduce it to 10 pounds per month. I walked the dog this am and decided to dust off my bike! Went four miles but also feel off and landed on my side as I was tryng to change gears going up a huge hill. Not smart!! Only a scraped elbow and knee, hubby was afraid I hurt myself but am OK!!!   Made a committment with all they other sept bandsters to exercise every day in Oct to see how much we cans shed!! Will keep you posted!!

Well today I am feeling great. I never did take any pain med after the surgery and I am glad ofthat. Went back to work last week 1/2 days because was still tired alot. I actually go tomorrow at 11 am and get these 15-20 stales out adn will finally get to enjoy my swimming pool again. So far I am dowm 12 1/2 pounds and I feel great about that. I made a goal of 15 pound loss for sept and another 15 pound loss for october so anything above that will be awesome. Starting Oct I will start with the exercise program. I am getting full with awhole lot less food than ever before. My problem beofre was that I am not a junk food junkie just a volume eater and I know this band will realy work for me!!:whoo: Will keep you posted on my Dr. Visit tomorrow!! On full liquids ie cottage cheese, soups chicken spread, pudding ect!!   PS Did sneak a glass of red wine!!

Well today is the first day I actually felt like going out and getting a few things accomplished!. The first couple days it was very painful where they give you the heperin shot in the tummy but soon found out a heating pad helped that. Just really having a difficult time trying to sleep. Alot of gas in the shoulder blades and gas in general. I am not taking any of the pain med because I do not want to vomit so I am toughing it out. Last night I can say that I had a nice sllep till about 2am but hey I'll take it!! My back gets sore from laying on it so I have been trying to do the walking but have been pretty tired. Trying to build up and take in all my fluids. I have taken all the bandages off and have around 15-20 staples they do not hurt though. I may have a few more because of the removal of my gall bladder at the same time.   My next doctor appt is Sept 24 (10 days post op) to have the staples out. Will let you know my weight loss at that visit!!:whoo:

Today is the day!

Well is is 3am on the 14th and I have been awake since 1 am. I have never been so thirsty knowing that I can't have anything to drink !! What a head case!   I am feeling really positive about this whole procedure, I have made a committment to myself that I will have this 80 pounds off by my 50th birthday!! I am going to work really hard at the whole exercise program as well.   I am also having my gall bladder out tomorrow at the same time and will update you on how that went as well.   The web sites and chat rooms have helped me out greatly. EVERYONE has been awesome so positive and supportive!!!   I am also a self pay so that is even more reason to make this tool work for me. The one positive thing I have going is that I am not a sweet eater only a volume eater so I am hoping that this will make my journey a bit easier.   Will let you know how I make out. HAPPY LOSING TO EVERYONE!!!:whoo:
