Well, this is the 5th day since I was banded on January 29,2008. I can't say that I am over joyed at the ways things are going. I have heartburn worse than before I was banded and live on Tums. I have slept alot in the past 2 days which is so unlike me. I am not really hungry but I find myself wanting food...yearning for chicken to be honest. Patience isn't one of my strong points so maybe that is weighing me down. I am so disapointed that my surgeon decided to ignore the hernia repair and am struggling to not let depression set in. I hate the heartburn!!! On the bright side the Tums is helping me get the calcium I need. Better days are ahead I am sure. I just wanted to be of those people who exclaimed how great things are and how wonderful they feel. If nothing else I am going to brutelly honest in this journal. This being only the 5th day I eat sf popsicles, protein shakes, tums, and some soup. Again I say that I am not hungry as of yet. The pain of the cut they made has gone,really it was gone by the 3rd day. I am not feeling any real PAIN outside of the heartburn. I am a little on the weak side but I hope it is because the past few days I have been in the slug mode,sleep and watch tv. Occasionally I get up to feed the animals and use the bathroom but as of yet haven't had the energy to do much else. i will write again in the next few days unless something new arises......
