Today i started my first day on full liquids!!!! This weekend was nothing but clear so I am stoked to say I can drink a protien shake :) .. I will b on full liquids this week n monday start pureed foods! Been looking around this website n some have some awesome recipes!! Can't wait to try it out! I went down 3 pounds since Friday I'm hoping this is the answer I have been looking for :)

I'll have to check out some of the recipes. I need ideas.

A couple of days ago, i was thinking " what the heck am I doing" haha !!

Now I am feeling pretty good and confident with my decision.

Haha im still at "what the heck am I doing" lol it was hard to this conclusion but after dieting exercising I was getting no where! I have a friend who had it done in 08 was a size 24 n now she's a 8 I was like holy cow!!!! I haven't been in single digits since hmm high school!!! So now after I got banded I'm so optimistic I will become the girl my husband met years ago and I will have the energy I need to play with my kids! I know it will be hard cause I love food!!! I just have to make healthier n smaller portions to satisfy me. Terri do you Facebook or anything? Would love to get to know you, my first friend that got banded the same week I did :) lol
