One week in Band land

Hi,

I wanted to start my journal. It has been one full week since surgery and I am doing pretty good. I will continue to exercise as much as possible, I feel so much better doing it! I found after Susanne left on Easter, my depression was soooooo real. I, for the first time in my life, couldn't turn to food to "comfort" the lonliness. That is a big AHA for me. I never realized I did that, but I do. So, I am hoping to overcome this w/ exercise. I want to exercise 4-5 days/week minimum.

I am on full liquids and doing pretty well. I am getting hungry about 2 hours after I eat, but considering I am only eating (or drinking) about 3-5 oz each sitting. I hope to progress to mushies this weekend, to get my body used to it before I go back to work.
