Pre-Op Video

This is a little video that I shot right before leaving to the hospital on the day of my surgery.  I forgot about it till now but thought I'd share it so that y'all could see how I was feeling the day of.  

Surgery Day Breakdown!

Well gang, I'm back to work!  I'm feeling pretty well and back in front of a computer.  I have done small updates from my phone, but honestly didn't feel like looking at a computer for the last week, so I didn't!  I'm back in action though and thought I would give an account of my experience.  So are we ready??  Ok.  Lets go.

Today is the Day!

I'm in the guest room just laying here in bed at my brother's house. I plan on spending a bit of my recovery time out here. I can hear the hustle and bustle of the house as my niece and sister in law get ready for work. I'm not quite ready to get out of bed so I'm just here. Laying. Relaxing. It's hard to imagine that in 8 short hours, I will actually be banded. All that time and anticipation will come to a pinnacle and I will be over that initial peak of the rollercoaster ride of my weight loss journey. Sure there will be other hills, but none are like the first. All of the anticipation and excitement have been building to get to this day. I can just hear the tink... tink... tink... as this coaster creeps to the edge of of that peak. One last little "clink" before the coaster release....

Wish me luck!! Hands are up!!
