Getting banded in the morning! Will blog as I can!!!

Good luck tomorrow. I was banded this morning! My stomach is hurting because I'm being transfered home now via van 6 hours away. I amost spewed but held on until the feeling went away. The vicodin is not helping so much but kinda. I'm hugging my pillow so I feel safe and secure. I'm so happy I got this band. I can't wait to be healed and start Diana_v2.0

Whoa? another surgery to add a bigger band? I've never heard of that. Fill me in, please.

I will keep you inmy prayers.

My surgeon said there are three sizes. He Only puts the largest in because it can be filled to be as small as the others and when Un filled can usually correct a slip. Some still use the older smaller bands.

So I had a dream last night that I was out of surgery and felt GReAt...then I forgot I had it and popped a mini snicker in my mouth...realized it and spit it out...rinsed my mouth but swallows a nut! Ahhh the horror of it...I am supposed to be on a liquid diet! Then my stomach gets this weird bump like the heel of a baby pushing out but I could feel the ring. Terrible...so I wake up and my alarm hadn't gone off...but I'm ok for time so I jump in the shower...and my sweet little five year old comes in. Now last night she was in tears at the thought of someone cutting me and me dying! So she has her little radio mp3 player device and she serenades me to the song "if I die young" by the band perry! OMG!!! What a beginning to surgery day! On my way to hospital! Surgery at 10:45! Is today really here?!

Ok family I'm officially through with the second surgery I had to have the one they put in on monday taken out. It was to small and had slipped. Yesterday they put in a larger one. Now I'm in more pain than ever, they went through the same incisions. Hopefully this works if not they will have to take it out and I would not be a lap band success
