I think that is great! Very encourging! Treat yourself to something new. I bought a few things one size down. I have three more days until my band!

My surgery is less than two weeks away and I am getting really nervous. Ease my mind, will you?

Today is week 4 for me, so that means intrucing meats to my diet. Today the pain in my chest and shortness of breath is a little better. I ate some turkey lunch meat and some peanuts, feel a little tight but everything appears to be going down

Had my refill yesterday, already feel some restrictriction today. Plan is get used to band next couple of weeks. Then in 2011, no excuses, Finish this thing in get to goal.

Since there has been no school here for the last two day, I've been busy studying for finals since they are this week. Also, I've been spending a lot of my time thinking about LAP-BAND. My fourth month appointment is December 14th and from there I will be able to move on. It seems as if I've been waiting forever for this to happen. I'm glad that now I can finally get this ball moving forward
