Who'sThere

Hey! Yes, it's hard to believe we are already three weeks (working on four) out. How are you doing? I am feeling better and better every day. I have hit some clearance racks this weekend and bought some dresses. I think I will be able to wear those longer than pants. The fit of dresses is more forgiving if they are a little big. It was exciting to get to buy a smaller size already! What have you been up to?

I'm doing really well. How 'bout you? I have lost ten pounds already, and I couldn't be happier. I did have a litle trouble with my port incision right after they removed the staples yesterday. It came open about a quarter of an inch, but my MIL is a nurse and she was able to close it with steristrips, which is what the doc's office suggested. So far, I have only walked one time, and I really need to jump on the treadmill, but I guess that will come in time. Let me know how you are doing! I can't wait to hear.

Thanks! I really enjoy blogging more than I ever thought I would. I started it for a lady I work with. We live in TN, and her daughter who lives in AL is interested in getting banded, and she wanted to hear from someone going through it what it was like.

I, too, can't wait to be able to wear "normal" sized clothes. I couldn't even find a stupid souvenier shirt at the beach (I'll discuss this in my blog) and the sizes supposedly went up to 7X.

Anyway, I'll keep writing, so keep reading if you enjoy it! I hope someone can benefit from my rants! LOL!

Keep in touch,

Amy

I'm totally excited too. I think the excitement is the only thing keeping me on this liquid pre-op diet from HELL! I'm a little nervous in a way, but I think that will kick in more as the time gets closer. Right now I'm trying to focus on getting everything done that I need today before our BIG DAY!

Are you on a preop diet, too? If so, how's it going for you?

I'm doing okay, I suppose. Today is day 2 of the preop diet, and I could literally eat the chair I'm sitting on. If I squint just right, this leather could pass for a big chocolate brownie! LOL! I just got back from the beach tonight, and I'm really proud that I made it on liquids for 2 days of vacation. How are you?
