 Today was my first post op appt. Everything is going well. Incisions look irritated but good per MD. I lost 9lbs in the 2 weeks since my surgery!! Yippee!!! More than I thought I would've lost. I am able to eat soft foods now. I go for my first fill and my next appt on March 1st. Support group meeting tonight at 1800. Only bad note, I cant return to work until next week :( Other than that, so far, so good!

 Hey...it has been 2 weeks since my Lap Band surgery and I am feeling almost back to normal. It has been an interesting 2 weeks....I am still on my full liquid diet. It honestly hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be. I have had no nausea, no vomitting, and the only real "pain", mostly discomfort, is from the port site. That is also where the biggest incision is. I have my first post op appt tomorrow and I get to see if I am able to return to work on Thursday. I'm a little nervous about that. I am a nurse, I work nights, we are busy and there tends to be a lot of bad food lingering around our unit. This will be my first real test! I am also anxious to see if I lost any weight since the surgery. It's ok if i haven't. Important thing is I have followed the rules, I feel good, I am exercising and I am excited about what's to come. I will say, I put on a pair of jeans this weekend that didn't fit before my surgery :) Well, I guess we will see what happens tomorrow but so far, so good!
