Post op appointment in Am interested to see what he is going to say about my hematoma over my port..

So I have the sweetest husband I told him about my being mad at the groupon add and he made me a hamburger patty with grilled onions made out of ground sirloin for my choose of protein meal tonight of course no buns or cheese or all that yummy stuff but it was gooooooooooood!

And the countdown is on... 7 days! 1 Week!

Good luck today!

Getting ready to head to the doctors office. Hopefully it will be a good appointment.

Weighed in this morning down 4lbs guess the gym is paying off woohooo!

Posted a blog on my surgery for those that wanted to know how it went. Too many to answer individually love you all and thank you for your get well wishes thoughts and prayers!

So I am home from Docs office he said I broke the first weight in record of any of his WLS patients offically down 38lbs!

70 LBS GONE FOR GOOD!!! ONLY TEN MORE TO TWODERVILLE!!

Wishing this pain would stop. Feeling as though I am getting dehydrated. BLAH! Ready to feel better!!

Did anyone else get told about Lapband.com and to log on and use the journey journal its pretty cool.

So I have developed an interesting side effect of this surgery... TMJ which is a painful disorder of the jaw often caused by too much chewing lol Least you know I am chewing correctly.

Baby steps ... I braved the shower gods..

Waiting to hear back from the doctor about a palm size hematoma that has appeared on my port site

Snowed in... Still sick... going to stay in bed and pray the ice melts before wends so I can get to my preop class

Put on my uniform tonight for work and they don't fit my scrub top that normally cuts off my circulation in the arms is hanging loosely and my pants are huge!!!

So I am kinda nervous about to call my dad and let him in on the lap band secret.. I don't know why I am so nervous he really has not much to do in my life but it is making me nervous all the same..

Pain is a little better but this constant pressure feeling under my sternum is starting to be rather annoying... Anyone else feel like there is a band around your stomach or something? ~

Got the okay to go back to work the 24th... not really looking forward to it but I guess I have to go at some point right...

WAR EAGLE BABY!!!

Blended maple brown sugar oatmeal extra running... Yummy!!! Good call Dani! I think I ate too much though!

Really wish they had a personal calander so I could keep up with all of my friends speical dates. If I forget to check on someone and forget to wish them well I am sorry...

Added a few recovering pics with two cute male nurses. Enjoy my swollen black eyes lol.
