Learning how to use my band!

:whoo:Septemeber 5th, I arrived at the hospital at 11am, they took me right in a prepped me for surgery. I removed all my clothes put on there lovely hospital gone, it covers everything. they put special knee highs on me and then socks . They started an IV, and gave me a hepperan? shot for blood clots. Then i waited, I was suppose to go in at 1pm but the girl before me ran into problems, she was having the full gastric bypass. I finally got in at 2:50pm they wheeled me into the operating room, They put my arms out straight onto a extension of the table, they then told me they were gonna start to give me something to sleep. I woke up later, they told me the surgery was great. They put me in recovery. I fell back asleep i didn't wake up until 7pm. My husband took me home. I didn't even go upstairs i laid on the sofa and fell back to sleep. I stayed there for 2nights and 2days. Friday night i slept in my bed, ilove my bed:).Iwoke up Saturday morning took a shower and felt better . I had a cup of tea and 15minutes later i ate some cream of wheat. My husband went to the store last night and he bought me all the stuff for my liquid diet. I am hungry though. I wish i could have a scrampled egg. I know it would take the edge off. But i'll do what they tell me to because i want to wear my size 8 jeans again and i didn't put all this effort in to blow it. I'm going to the wal-mart tonight to get vitamins and some other things i need. I hope the soreness in the port area gets better soon , the area stings where the hepperan was administered.I've been putting neosporin on it. The hard thing is i want to drive my car and get out of the house and they told me no driving for 2weeks. But i'll survive, as always!:car::car::car::car::car::car::car::car:
