How do I put the cute little ticker into my posts?

Well, its been 9 days since banded. I'm back at work doing half days and its really wiping me out but I get to sit and I'm on the computer most of the time. I had creamy potato soup yesterday and that is the most substance I've had since pre-op clear liquids. It was yummy but I got full fast. I have to keep remembering I can't drink and eat at the same time. I got the hiccups yesterday and that was uncomfortable. I'm 14 pounds down and all the gas and most of the swelling from surgery seems to be gone. Good luck to you all.!!

I was just banded 8/6/07. I've been reading everyone's blogs and I must have had a different lapband surgery than the rest of you. hehe 5 days clear liquids pre-op. 2 weeks clear liquids post op. Geez, I want a meatball. They knocked me out good morning of surgery. Appearantly, I'm funny. Who knew!! When I came out, I was so dehydrated I wanted ice chips like they were the best things on Earth. I'm out of pain killers, as of today. I think I'll be ok to sleep tonight though. One thing no one has mentioned....I was so swollen and bloated from the gasses it was unbelievable. No one prepared me to look bigger when I came out than when I went in. I just now think I'm out of the gas that they bloat you up with. I would like to know if I could have something sensible...like an egg or something. Or would this hurt me?
