October 6, 2005

Lapband Surgery Date was October 6, 2005, starting weight before pre-op was 230 pounds, surgery day weight was 222 pounds. Very nervous and questioning my decision. I was suppose to do all clear liquids for 7 days and I only did it for 3. My surgery was very successful though. I was up and walking that night because I made myself. I know from past surgerys that the quicker you move the faster you recover.

The week after my surgery was the toughest. Everyone was eating and I couldn't, I was really starting to regret my discision and mad at myself for going to this extreme to loose weight:confused: My port area was very sore and my shoulder was sore.
