Just Banded

[shantra 73]

Well here I am on the other side. The pain isn't and wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be, except when I cough UGHH but holding a pillow on my tummy really helps. I haven't had any trouble swallowing at all and I really thought I would, I had not been able to feel the band but when I coughed I felt something in the general area and it was a bit uncomfortable, tight.

Narced up on liquid hydrocodone this morning so very comfortable and woozy. Emptied the sink of a small amount of dishes and silverware my husband left, top shelf so it was easy. Managed to feed the dogs. Put on a pot of coffee and drank a Protein shake for Breakfast.

Really feeling good and looking forward to losing more weight!

Congratulations......Remember this...this DOES work!

And do not take too much of what you read on this forum to heart....the majority of people who come here are those with problems seeking advice or motivation and support because they are failing, or simply don't understand..........the successful ones, and they ARE out there, don't hang around here all that much.....

Sometimes you would think this never works, but it does!
