Just got home from the hospital tonight. I feel pretty good, holding liquids down okay. My stay at the hospital, was YUCKY! I couldn't sleep, rolled around thinking, what have I done?!?!

I am hoping to feel better tommorrow.

I know it'll all work out....

On day three i had that thought. I permanent reality kicked in. I knew it was the right decision - and still is. But, I think a lot of us go through those phases.

I'm two months out - it's not been easy/but it's not been really 'hard' either. Don't yet have good restriction so it's been ups and downs but I just remind myself it's a tool and I'll get there!

Good luck to you - it will get better!

Today is my third day and I am very pleased. So far no problems at all. I am being very careful to be sure not to overload. I'm having a hard time getting all the fluid and protein recommended, but doing the best I can. I don't think I am going to ever regret this. Losing weight and keeping it off, while not feeling severe hunger pains... what could be better! Merry Christmas to myself!

Congrats on your band! Expect to feel sore and down the first week. I was so stir crazy after the 1st week! Just take it easy and enjoy your down time by watching movies, reading or doing whatever else sedetary that you like to do.
