As of today, I'm past my half way weight loss. I'm down 33 lbs and have 24 to go to meet my goal weight. I'm also two weeks post-op. My doctor post-op appt. has been rescheduled to Monday and I am very excited about it.
Surprisingly, I'm still feeling pain when I sit and when I lay down. Moving around is much better. I feel much more helpful. I'm excited to get back to work on Monday but will probably have to take it easy. I also am excited to drive again - I can drive tomorrow.
Yesterday, I had one of those mini ice cream cups (just plain Vanilla). I was feeling very low sugar and Stefan and I couldn't see any reason that I couldn't have it. I just have to know that I cannot have it all the time.
I'm counting down the days to mushy foods and all I do is imagine the possibilities that await my new eating adventure. The lapbandtalk.com forum has been an invaluable source of information. One of the topics I've joined has great information about getting back into eating and socializing (my triggers). Another topic has been helpful in understanding "PB" - it is like throwing up for bandsters - it stands for Productive Burp - burping up food and slime. Sounds scary, right? Yes it does!
The ride home from Mammoth was horribly painful - we really tried to take breaks but it was still bad. Resting today will really help. What a great family vacation and an amazing way to recoup.
