Hi! I'm actually doing fairly well! I'm sticking to my diet. I'm being very creative with recipes and that helps! That's just it, I didn't have a ore-op diet! Ugh!

Ok so today is 3rd day post op! I'm on my 1000 calorie diet and I expected this part to be easier due to the surgery! But since my band isn't closed my appetite is still roaring! But I've done great and will continue to do so until I get this band closed!!!! The gas is so bad though! When will the gas ease up?

That's exactly the attitude I have! I keep saying, three weeks isn't anything when you think about the span of life! I am disappointed but really I'm ok! I'm glad he made the decision to stop instead doing it blind! That's for sure!!!! He explained it to my mom and myself just like this: he didn't explain well enough or at all for that matter that I needed to watch what I ate for the previous two weeks. And of course, I love good. So I ate any and everything I could get my hands on kinda like a goodbye yummy food, fast food, etc..... And with me being self pay I didn't have a scope to see everything. But I know this is God's plan and I will be obedient to the doctor and to The Lord! Thanks for the encouragement.

Didn't go as planned. I have my band and port in but my liver was too large to fasten the band. So I'm on a diet for 3 weeks and then back in to fasten the band. Prayers please.

Thanks for the advice! I will def update after tomorrow.

Amazing! Such a great story!
