225.6 so minus 6.6lbs on pre-op liquid diet. Normally I'd gain this all back after eating one REAL meal!
4:30 AM rise and shine ~ nothing to eat or drink since before 10PM.
Still have a slight headache that started last night ~ could be caffeine withdrawal or hormonal.
Feel good other than the headache and being tired ~ rough night of trying to fall asleep and stay asleep.
Not sure what time my surgery actually was. I know I was in the holding area for a very long time w/o any good drugs to calm my nerves but I really wasn't nervous, I had a peace about the surgery and I just wanted it DONE @ this point in time.
In my room I have my own self activating pain pump for pain meds (I love pushing buttons). My pain is less than I expected and I am walking as much as possible to get the gas pumped into me during the operation out of me! I only have 3 incisions and they don't look very big, especially the one for the liver retractor ~ about the size of the tip of my pinky finger.
So anyways it's a done deal ~ no turning back now!! No going back to my old bad eating habits, no overeating, no eating just because ~ must focus on keeping my meals small from this day forward....and so my banded life begins...
Started my cycle late into the night after surgery this morning ~ oh joy ~ let's just compound my issues!
New LOW!!!
