Oh Ruthie,

I am so sorry for your loss and hope the traveling goes well for you.

This time last week, I was being banded. I thought I was just going to die the first few days afterwords. But I have to tell you that the excitement is back. The looking forward to weight loss and gaining health. Since I started my pre op diet 3/10 I am down a total of 27 pounds:thumbup: and I'm really starting to feel good and feel good about myself. I'm not experiencing very much pain at all and I think the gas is gone....I've "pooted" my fair share in the last few days....lol

I go to my first post op support group tonight and I'm looking forward to it. I intend to make these a regular part of my life..."my aftercare"...I have my first post op appointment next week and then 4 weeks til a fill. I can do this!! I really can...I wasn't too sure a few days ago, but now I'm feeling that this is awesome....

HUGS TO ALL OF YOU

Take Care,

Meg

Hi Everyone, Can you believe a week ago today we were having surgery? The week has really flown by fast. One more week on the liquid diet then it on to pureed foods. I can't wait. I have lost 17 lbs since the pre op diet. I'm feeling fatigued but don't have much discomfort. I've been walking at lunch everyday this week. I can't wait to get my energy back. Hope everyone is doing well. Keep up the good work. We can do this y'all.
