  1. Hey! Doing ok here. I have been on the boards but i guess i am doing more reading than posting. Hope all is coming along well for you. Well, as you know I went in Monday, got banded, came home tuesday. Wed there was a meeting at work I couldn't get out of so I went in for that and worked 3 hrs. That was grueling! But I thought I could handle a half day Thursday. Friday was a whole day and i was exhausted. Came home to sleep 2 hrs because I wanted to participate in Relay for Life that evening, and woke up at midnite! Then rolled over and slept another 12 hrs! Yesterday I was tired all day and snoozed off and on. Tired today to but its getting boring lol. My tummy has gone from purple and red to brown and green and yellow. My own personal rainbow lol No pain, no restriction, no throwing up and I am trying to stay on the soupy type foods here for the next few weeks. I am having trouble cooking for one tho. It sure doesn't take long for one serving of something to burn up on the stove! I have done that a few times now. BF is turning out to be a jerk. He stayed with me in the hosp til I was out of surg, then he left because "I was only going to be sleeping anyway." He came back for about an hour til I got discharged and hes called exactly once since then. I think I have had it with him but on the off chance that I am operating on a food deprived brain (probably lol) I am holding off making any rash decisions for now. So tell me how your surgery went. Are you doing the right things? exercising? I have tried a bit but mainly too tired to do more than a few minutes. I am sure next week will bring more energy with it. Let me know how you are. Mary
