I'm on my way! Tuesday I went for my first post op appointment and I am doing extremely well. The drainage pump was removed. THANK GOD! That was the most annoying thing to have in my side. But it's gone. When I got on the scale I had lost 11 lbs since I had left the hospital but my doctors assistanct caluclated how much weight I had lost since my Pre-op appointment which meant 14lbs GONE! PPHHEEWW! See ya and I am so glad to be rid of you. On my goal sheet I actually put my stating weight when I went in to have my lab work done because that was the first time I had been on the scale since they had removed the saline from my band. So when I factor it all in, I actually have lost 17 lbs total. I don't know about you but I am super excited. Now if I could just make myself remember to eat. I have to even remind myself to drink too. I can't believe the restriction. But I love it. I am not in any pain just a little low on energy but I try to keep moving as much as possible but not over doing it. Well my next appointment is not until next Thursday. Can't wait to see how much I have lost...LOL! My doctor told me if I follow the simple instructions he gave me there is no doubt that I will reach my goal weight within 6 months. Can't wait to see what it is going to be like in 6 months. That is going to be a great journey to a new and healthier ME! Wishing all of the newly sleeved and those anticipating being sleeved much success. I can't wait to read about you. I will post pictures soon. I was thinking when I make the 1 month mark. Have a great day! Talk to you soon!
