hey what is LSD? cus Maybe I hung out with the wrong crowd in HS...

oh god that was freakin halarious!! I have 2 cats and a dog and i work with alot of engineers...so this was great gonna have to find it so i can post it to myspace

I got banded on aug 11th...getting ready to head back to work...nervous for that as i have been wearing mostly jammie pants...and can't really do that at work...lol:blushing:

Hmm so much to say really, the good a great tool to help lose the weight... the bad is probably the pain from the surgery...and the limited liquid diet I am on at the moment...blah the ugly...for me well the new scars I will have and the worry that I may have to have more surgery if my skin doesn't shrink up... But I had my lap band surgery one week ago today, so it is still fresh...But I think totally worth it, I already have changed in this week as far as hunger and energy and making choices... just make sure it is what you want and are willing to commit the time, it is not a cure all but a great tool to succeed

My nose itched something fierce and they wouldn't let me stratch it incase I got some fresh "non-oxygen'd air"...lol then next thing I remember...a nurse saying my name really loud to wake me up in recovery and begging for ice chips and told Dr says no-no not until you are in ur room...and my throat was so dry from that "oxygen"...and the tube...lol

I had my surgery on Aug 11 2008, and I was told by the staff at the hospital that I was the quickest to my feet and reacted extremely well, I had no nausea or anything. It was like waking up a new person. The place that did my surgery have us stay over night, which was great until one of the machines figured I should not sleep, had me hooked up to monitor my heart rate and O2, and just as I would doze off, BEEP went the machine...So i unhooked my self and wondered the halls at 2 am, my normal wake up time...lol. After My walk around and watching the sky for falling meterors as it was the time for the meteror showers in August, I did see one :smile:...I went back to my room did not hook up to that monitor and slept for 3hours...:frown: But I too have felt good, bruised and my insision sites are painful and sore but I am upbeat, have hardly any hunger, although I watched a movie today and a guy was eating a hotdog with mustard and kraut (my fav) and I wanted one...so craving not actually needing one... I ventured out of the house to the grocery store, the normal girls there were laughing at my purchases, all liquids...and day two to the store was all jello...oh so funny really. And I actually can tolerate the fake sugar, before it would give me headaches and wreck havok with my stomach but my fav protein drink myoplex, chocolate fudge is sugar free and has fake sugar can not even tell except it is less sweet and keep me fuller... it is so much better than the boost drinks which are too sweet and the sugar free one is chalkier... I would say my only issue right now is getting up from laying down it really hurts under my belly button and at my port site which is near where my bra line is...although I have gas...I have not BM'd since the day before surgery, feeling kind of full but only got gas...so not sure really maybe my body is using it all...think I will call the office tomorrow and ask... The other thing is I am bored as heck...and I live so far from work and friends that I am not ready to travel that far yet, maybe tomorrow...I'll drive to work and visit some friends...:wink2:
