February 24

Today is day 4 and I'm feeling alot better. I had a bad bout of vomiting the first night home and was sure that I ripped my band right out. No more pain meds for me and I'm feeling much better. I removed the outer bandages today as well and the cuts don't look that bad. I can't wait to be more healed though.

Tomorrow I start full liquids and I can't wait b/c today I feel pretty weak and tired. I did put a bit of peanut butter on my tongue and that tasted pretty good but I certainly don't want to overdo anything.

 

I just hope that I made the right decision and this band works well with my body. I kind of miss food right now- it's head hunger talking and just something I have to work through. Being home for the past few days has made me realize how much food takes me through the day. Weird.
