    okay 9 days in and i am still kicking...but really think i overdid it yesterday...i am so tired and sore today, i think i understand why u aren't supposed to drive for 2 weeks. but i must trudge forth, my life is never on hold and i can't believe the holidays are approaching and i have nothing occomplished. gotta get moving. i am still in denial about losing any weight, i can't see it, so i guess it doesn't count. but i am looking ofrward to the first 50...maybe then. one more week and then i am supposed to go to solids,hmmmm i don't know i think the doc is pushing it a lil. i can't imagine that. and which one would i start with that i wouldn't get sick on...that is my biggest fear that and the first fill. also found out the lapband is a 10cc. so that was interesting. chin up and best to all in the journey.

    :rolleyes:okay so i am still kicking and have lost most of the swelling,yippee!!! still have muscle soreness in neck, back and legs(nurse is getting back to me on it)...Yesterday was fun, i find myself ready to start baking for the holidays and find if I use the sippee cup(without theat lil plastic thangy) i can get most of my fluids in and hopefully i am getting all the protein. I find that i can't commit myself to any goals for fear of failure and can't wait to start doing more things with my girls. I go Dec. 5th for the first visit and am kinda nervous. I don't want to loose this weight very fast, yet I would like to at least notice something, this morning I am down to 313.

  4. okie dokie, so i keep reminding myself it is early and only day 2 after banding, i don't know what i was expecting... i am struggling to keep myself hydrated and moving, i wan't expecting all the soreness everywhere but my incision sites, my muscles hurt so bad in my legs and neck. i don't know how i can eat all the fluids and get the protein i need. and then i am swollen and miserable. GOD I pray i have done the right thing here, I don't know any details and things werent really explained other than the general everything went fine, and i call tomorrow for my first three week appointment and don't even know what he will do, I am reminding myself one moment at a time and each moment counts.:mad2:
