  1. 2 days until the big one

    · swirligirl · 01/27/2006 13:32

    :faint: I am turning 30 on Sunday :faint:
    This should just not be allowed, I am on purees and I can not drink (alcohol that is) and I get tired pretty fast so I am not going to head out to party the night away. I have decided to post-pone turning 30 until June when I hope I can better party my 20's away. heh.
     
    Otherwise, in bandland things are great. I met with my nutritionist yesterday and she has moved me up from purees to a kind of mushy/soft foods mix. I am going to get to try chicken not pureed and tuna and maybe some well cooked veggies. Very exciting . She did not weigh me, but I feel like I have lost a bit more since my Monday post-op. I am now 12 days out from surgery (1/16) and feeling really good. :clap2: Most people don't believe that I have had sugery!!

  2. Day 11 post op

    · swirligirl · 01/26/2006 00:19

    :clap2: HOORAY I am all BANDED!

    I have to say that I love my band so far, of course I am not so far out from surgery so I am trying not to express too much love.:kiss2: So far I have lost 18lbs pre-op:biggrin1: , and 10lbs post-op :madgrin: . I will start weighing in at Curves next week when I get back to real life. I took two weeks off of work, so I have been a little out of reality. Right now I am on pureed foods:hungry: , which seemed gross when I was faced with the idea, but is actually not so bad. I puree some tuna salad, chicken salad, and tonight some yummy shrimp and it isn't all that skeevy. Sure I wanted a big piece of my roommate's pizza the other night, but I am sure one day I will get to enjoy a small slice. For now it is all about healing up my stomach and staying focused :rockon: .
