4 weeks post op!!!
Good Morning Bama Board!
Well, I am 4 weeks post op now and still losing...down 21 pounds so far! I had hoped to lose more during the 1st month but I am excited about the 21 pounds! I am starting to have a little more energy now.
I am having a Lupus Flair this week, my legs hurt really bad, kidney infection etc...I called my Rheumatologist and he was out of town this week and his nurse was too...so I had to go see my GP. She took care of me...gave me a shot of prednisone (I hate prednisone
), some antibiotics and some different pain med's and I am starting to feel some better, I think??
I don't want to weigh though because of the prednisone I know I probably have gained 1 or 2 pounds..of water weight! I am so swelled up! Thank you prednisone!
I go for my first fill TUESDAY!!!! Yea!!!! I am so excited, for the last week I have been starving !!!! I have done pretty good I think...trying to control the urge to eat! I have pretty much stuck to 3 meals a day, like a good lapband patient! I hope I get enough of a fill to make a difference!
Well I will post again when I get a chance....have a great weekend!

Congtrats on the 21 pound loss. It will continue to drop. You are doing good. Give me a call sometime if you need to talk. We are going to start up the monthly meetings again. It's going to be more SUPPORT GROUP based with info, handouts and such, but we will still be meeting for dinner somewhere different each month. We are meeting at Panera Bread on November 7th. at 5:30-7:00
