I'm a Member of the Band!

Yeah! Hi Everyone! I'm back from Monterrey with a beautiful lapband, courtesy of my wonderful doctor! What a time! Everything went beautifully, and then.... while doing "the viewing" my doctor discovered that I had a 5cm hiatal hernia! Wow! He fixed it and then went on to proceed with the lapband installation. Today, 4 days after my surgery, I'm still sore, but, hey... what's a little discomfort compared to how healthy I'm going to be and oh, baby, how good I'm gonna look!

Thanks for everyone's well wishes. You all are the best! Oh... and if you doctor wants you to go on a liquid diet before the surgery, do it. Mine did and I lost 20 pounds of ugly fat (and I will admit water) prior to surgery. He was so impressed and said that it really does make it easier for the surgeon if you can do that. So now I'm going to find myself a nice looking little ticker and start plotting my weight loss.

Thanks!
