follow-up with Dr. Bui went very well. no sign of infection, minimal pain (and only occasionally), incisions are healing nicely. the port incision is healing a little more slowly but thats to be expected since its the largest. Dr. Bui says it looks good tho. steri-strips have been removed but he put 2 new ones over the port incision. i can take them off in a week.

lol im sorta tempted to get a picture of my stomach. the scars arent anywhere near as bad as i thought they were going to be. but i doubt anyone wants to see my fat belly LOL! :glare:

we went over diet, exercise, wound care, portion control, etc. we also talked about fills. i have a 10 cc band and had 2 ccs in at the time of surgery (which would account for the crazy restriction i had at first. he said the band would be empty!). he is having his coordinator call me to schedule a fill for me in the first week of April.:smile2:

im doing good tho! started solid foods last night. :wink2: despite having 2 ccs in a 10 cc band, i no longer have restriction. so the hunger is back. and i dont feel full. so itll be a struggle to make it to the first week of April without wanting to stuff myself but ill do it.

Good luck to you your doing so well and I would love to see pictures of your belly.
