Hey Kristy
I am doing well. I was banded four days ago. I have had no pains from the incision sites…………a bit of gas pain under my rib cage. I feel like i did 4 million sit ups………sore. I have also been tired, by the time i have a shower and get half way dressed, i need a nap. I have not been hungry yet, i am eating liquids……..broth, jell-o, milk,water, I mixed some tofu with butternut squash soup today to get some protein. So far so good. I have gone on a couple short walks to work out the gas bubbles. You must be getting excited. Let me know if you have any questions that i might be able to answer for ya.

I am off to see the anesthetist on Wednesday in Victoria at 1 pm. then I have our monthly support meeting that evening. then I will have only a few more days a to become a bander (I always wanted to become something he he) Oh re protein -I was told to ge Protein shakes with Whey Isolet in them from Walmart. You mix them with water and it is a clear drink. Take care We will chat again I am sure Kirsty

It looks like I will be in Victoria for part of the 28th… at RJH no less… are you being done at RJH? No promises about visiting because I might have to leave early (while you are in the OR), but I'll do my best to check in on you if I'm there later.
