6 Days

Six day out and Im kinda feeling worst. I feel as I did the day I got out of surgery with not being able or at least feeling as I cant or am having trouble breathing. Is this normal? Ive thought about calling my dr but....

 

Today is the first day to be taking care of my daughter all alone since I was banded so maybe thats why I feel so bad????

 

On a happier note I did get on the scale this morning and im down 8lbs. Goodness if only I had the will power to be on a iquid diet maybe I wouldnt have had to get this done??? LOL JK I know I needed to get this. I needed to get this done so that I could have a long happy healthy life with my family. So that I could chase my daughter around the play ground when she starts walking. So that I could fianlly for once in my life be happy with myself. But this is no piece of cake. It is hard and I am just so thankful for all my family and friends who have helped out and I so happy that I have the site. It has really helped me.

 

Tomorrow I go in to have the staples removed so praying that will help with a little bit of the pain. And on to a soft food diet. Kinda scared about that though. This gas is killing me. LOL no really it is.
