My Band is done!

I’m healing up nice and quick! I had my band placed on 10/21. The post op pain was not bad except for the SEVERE gas pains from the air they pump into the abdomen during surgery it lasted for about 5 days (OUCH) but its better now thank god. I have my first Post-op appt. today and will be going from a high protein liquid diet to hopefully baby food or soft food diet. (It should be no problem, I’ve had no issues with nausea or anything!) I think I have already lost about 20lbs and I feel great! I think this will be the best thing I have ever done for myself and getting slim and healthy. Maybe soon I can interview for jobs and not feel like a fat pig trying to fit into a world of slim cats

We had a crazy snow storm here in the northeast last weekend! Lots of trees down and no power for a while. I had to help my Dad out with moving branches and stuff and over did it some (being only 7 days post op) but he has no one else to help. It felt good to get outside and do something physical despite the sore muscles.

Here are some recent pics from Halloween fun and the snow!
