Sorry I have not posted recently

Well I was banded on Sept 22 and lost a total of 10 pounds between then and November 10th when I has my first fill. When I got on the scale yesterday morning I was up 5 pound from the day before but for my that is not uncommon because of Fluid retention around that time of the month. But today I am back down that 5 pounds I just wish the scale didn't have that 5 pounds so the Dr could see it really was a 10 pound loss not 5. I am happy with that first 10 because it is more then I would have loss on any other diet and more then I have ever loss in 6 weeks before.

I was ready for a fill about 3 weeks post op but like everyone else had to wait. So I went for my first fill yesterday and I was filled with 4cc. I have been doing liquids and did do some mushy cireal because I was so stinken hungry I was going in saine needed to take the edge off. My stomach was having a musical number from being empty.

So today I decided to do spagettie o's and I can tell the difference. I have to eat slow because it feels like it takes longer to go from my throat to my stomach and after about 10 spoon fulls I am done. I do need to eat something every couple of hours.

My incissions heeled kind of slow. My large on where my port is had one cornor that never closed like It was supposed to so I had to keep Bacitracin ointment and change the dressing 2 time a day until the last week in October. Now it is healed over finally. The rest of my incissions were healed about 2 1/2 -3 weeks post op.

I am a dinner at work and since I had the time I thought I would fill everyone in.

The reason's I have not been on so much is because I have been wicked tired from my Chronic Fatigue syndrome so I just have not had the extra energy. Also I have been trying to be positive about the 10 lbs and I was worried if I saw the other Sept bandsters loosing alot I might get down about it.

Anyways I am going to make more of an effort to check in atleast every couple days.

Hope everyone is happy in bandster land...:)
