1st Fill Today!!!

Okay, I got my first fill today and I was a tad bit nervous. The PA did not have any problem finding my port. She said I had more fluid in my band than she normally sees.

Post Op Appt

Hi Everyone,   I had my post op appointment today and it actually went well. I'm losing at a good rate and my first fill will be the first week in August. Dr. Marsden said I'm doing very well and I'm on the right track. He gave me the picture of "my" band and I was like wow. I'm excited for my new journey and he seems to think that I'm going to be successful. I will keep you guys posted!!

Surgery 2morrow!!!

Boy am I nervous. I got on the scale and was very disappointed this morning. It all started out so well and then boom....the last few days have been depressing :-(!!! I have been on task and did what the Dr. told me to do but expected a bigger loss on this pre op diet. Well, I'm going to say a prayer for me and my Dr. that all goes well! Wish me luck and I know I will be back to update soon.
