July 4th Tuesday

I had my Gall bladder surgery. It was alot easier than I was expecting. I and 4 days out have have not taken anything for pain all day. The first day was the worst. I was not in pain on the inside, But there was a burning on the skin of one of my holes. I took a ton of meds waiting for it to go away, finally around 12:00 am I passed out. I was out of it for hours, then woke up to take more pain meds, and back to bed. I think my band might be easier because the day of this surgery TOM came and that sucked. I was crampy all over, although I was happy to be able to sleep on my stomach even on the first night home.

I am sitting here thinking damn, I only have 21 days till my band. I just can't wait. I have had so many last suppers it is sad. This past weekend we went to hunans for sushi. YUM.. it was Kenny's last supper because he finally got approved yesterday. But I celebrated too. lol

Everyone I see, I think in my head I wonder if I can get that small? I hope my ass will look like that. If I work out like crazy will my arms still flap? lol I know its stupid but it gives me something to think about other than food.

I was talking to my mom the other day and told her I was scared that I was going to morn my food. I have relied on it for so much, and through so many hard times. What am I going to do.. She said go shoping for smaller cloths. I liked that idea....

I had my gallbladder removed many years ago and I can't rememer the pain after surgery but I do remember the pain before I knew what the problem was.

Only 21 days away from being banded, that is excellent (Yeahh) Don't stress about food you will get through it and it is temporary. The first few days you won't even want food and as time goes on you will see your weight going down and you will realize it is better to look good then to eat crap you are craving.

Also, don't wait to start exercising, start now, today, yesterday. A little goes a long ways. Check out the exercise threads and start posting what you are doing.
