Wahoo !!!!! I did it!!!

Well ladies and gentlemen,

It is official, I am banded! I feel a little sore mainly in the the shoulder. I am sipping my fluids and all in all doing pretty great. I know one the rest of the surgery meds wear off it will get a bit more tender but that's ok! Nothing could have prepared me for how small the incisions really seem in reallity, nor how easy it would all really be :)
