It has been one week exactly that I was banded and I am honestly feeling great. Most of the pain from the surgery is gone and yesterday I started adding some "moist and mushy" food into the mix of clear liquids. Just a little and it has been OK. I am not really hungry so much, but do have head hunger and am trying to get over that. Today is my first day back to work and so far, so good. I have a post-op nutrition class and my post-op examination this afternoon. Am looking forward to getting more information on how to adjust to this new lifestyle. I am trying to be really positive about this and as a result, just more positive in my life in general.

Congrats! thats wonderful.

You have such an amazing outlook! I'm glad you are feeling so great!
