Proud of Myself

I am so proud of myself. I feel great, soreness is gone, no pain meds since the day of surgery, walking 30 minutes a day and the BEST PART ,I have lost 21#'s since starting my pre-op diet and surgery. I can not get over how well I feel and about the weight loss. I had my surgery a week ago tomorrow and it is truly the best thing I have ever done for myself. I no longer crave crazy food and even though I'm still on liquids only, I think before I put anything in my mouth now. I hope it keeps coming off like it is now. :rolleyes2:

Home from Surgery and I feel GREAT!

I am home from the hospital and feel great! :redface: I have been walking and have no gas pain or any other type of pain to speak of thus far. I do have a high tolerance for pain but I am sure I will feel something later tonight. I have had a couple of sips of water but taking it slow. My mouth feels like I have been on a week long drinking binge. I have never had cotton mouth this bad in my life. How long does it take for this to go away? I hope everyone else who was banded today is having a positive experience like I have so far. I still can't believe that I'm banded!:frown:

Today is the DAY!!!!!

The "Day" is finally here. I about to leave to go to the hosiptal. We live about an hour and half from the hosiptal, so we are leaving early to ensure arrival on time or even early. I am one of those crazy people who begin to freak out if I am not 15 minutes early to an appointment. I did not sleep much at all last night. Fear of oversleeping and excitment I guess. It's hard to believe I will be banded in few short hours and I will join most of on the "other side". Had the "little talk" with my hubby the one noone wants to have, but is a must. The "not going to happen, but if it does" these are my wishes. :thumbup: Made me feel better but it upset him a little. He truly loves me for me:wub: not my size. Gotta love the man! I will post when I feel better, Good Luck to all being banded TODAY!

The Count Down Begins

I can hardly wait for Thursday, Febuary the 18th. I know many of you have felt the same or are feeling the same way I am. I will be banded on Thursday, at 8:30 in the morning:thumbup: I have been faithful to my 14 day liquid diet and have lost 15# so far. Iam looking forward to the next phase of my life. I already feel out-of-this world. Getting all the carbs and junk out of my body has made a world of difference, with my energy level and overall feeling great. I have not felt this good in a long time. I need something to get my mind off of waiting for the big day. I am planning on returning to work on Monday. I know many of you are thinking there is no way she will be able to do that. I have a high tolerance for pain and hope that I will return on Monday. I need a little advice, as to what to take to wear home? This web-site has already been a great resource for me on what to expect and not expect, what to do and not what to do. I look forward to connecting to all you bandsters after the 18th. Good Luck to all other 18 banders out there!:confused:

Ready Fready

I start my pre-op diet on Thursday!:bored: I have done a trial run..only protein shakes for breakfast and lunch. Like everyone has posted it's going to be the longest two weeks of my life. If I could only stop obessing about getting banded. It's like waiting for Christmas morning when you were a kid. I think I might just loose my mind. Come on February 18th. I am not at all nervous about the surgery. I just want the the first day of the rest of my life to get here. I have learned so much as to what to do and what not to do from everyones post. I can't wait to be able to feel comfortable with having my picture taken. I want my kids to have something to remember me by. At this point they have none. :mad3:
