Tomorrow

lapband78

301 views

Tomorrow will be 4 weeks since I had the lap band. I will meet with the surgeon and go over what has happening.

I don't really know what to expect. I hope I will get a fill so I can begin my journey of eating normally with a lap band (1 cup a meal) but from what I've read here on the site and other places, I know that not everyone is getting a fill.

 

I can eat more than I used to. I guess I eat maybe 2-2.5 cups for lunch and dinner. Not sure though, I haven't measured. But I think I eat a lot more than on week 1 or 2.

 

Today I ate more than I should and I felt so full! First time in 4 weeks that I've felt so full but not so much that I felt sick, just full ;)

 

I'm having trouble with water. I bought a 1 liter bottle to keep track of how much I drink. I only empty it once a day. And then I have maybe 2-3 glasses of other drinks than water. I read I should drink up to 3 liters a day! ugh, I need to see what my doctor wants me to drink.

 

I don't have any pain from my port anymore!! yay, that's good news! So happy because last week it was driving me crazy and I was worried it would be like that always.

My scars are healing really well. I've removed all bandages but they are a bit sore. Like if my desk presses on the big scar. But nothing that bothers me.

Burping continues, and I accidentally burped out loud at work, that was a bit embarrassing haha.

 

So over all it almost feels like I haven't had the surgery at all..... almost!!

 

Hoping for the best tomorrow.. what ever that will be
