So I went for my first post op visit. Didn't expect to really see a difference on the scale yet but to my surprise I am 15lbs lighter since surgery 11 days ago!! That is a total of 27lbs all together!! I am so excited. This was just the validation I needed to realize that this was the path I was meant to take. I'm not gonna lie I cried. Happy tears but tears none the less lol. I didn't really hit me until today that I'm really able to do this. The self doubt is minimal at this point and I couldn't be much happier. I think my doctor was pretty shocked how well I've done so far too. I have more determination than ever at this point and I can't wait til I can use this tool to the best of my ability.
I was told that my band is 10cc's and I will get my first saline injection on May 17th. He told me that my first fill would be 3cc's and it would be adjusted from there. I really can't believe how quickly all of this is going. In 3 days I will be allowed to eat mushy foods. I'll be on that for 2 weeks. Then its on to my fill and on to solid foods. YAY!!! All in all this has been a really great day :)
