Goodbye Band, Hello Sleeve!

As of noon today, I have my sleeve! So far, so good. Not much pain and what I do have is easily controlled. I am one of the lucky ones - my surgeon gave me a PCA and a binder without me having to ask. I've already been up walking several times and I'm tolerating ice chips with no issues.

Such a difference from this morning when I cried all the way to the hospital because I was so scared!

I'll update my ticker when I get home but my surgery weight was 280 this morning.
