Notes:

FYI, D3WLB = Day 3 with Lap-Band. New notation moving forward.

Last night I had the best sleep ever! I managed to sleep until 7:45 am which was just enough sleep, I had gone to bed around 10pm last night. The stinging when I pee is now all gone, Thank GOD!. The incision marks are a bit sore today, I roll around a lot at night so I must have given them a good workout. Today I get to start the STAGE III diet which includes oatmeal, cream of wheat, and low fat/no fat pureed soups! Yippie! Well, time to start my day.

Today I was able to put my wedding ring back on :)

7pm - Today was kind of a rough day for me. The gas pains are quite painful and what makes it worse is that the gas will not leave my body uggh! My only recourse is to lie on the bed; this seems to make the pain and the gas go away. My appetite is still threadbare, I managed to force down some food mostly in the form of liquid protein shake but at best I probably only had 10 oz of the stuff. I also had a 6oz yogurt and about 4 oz of a low fat squash puree soup, my stomach tolerated these both quite well. I did take about 30-40 minutes to eat each which is the recommendation of the program. I am hoping that tomorrow brings me a better day both with regards to food and my discomfort. I am curious to see where my weight will be in the a.m. If it is another 2 or 3 three lbs I am going to contact my weight loss surgeon and see if this is normal. Anyhoo, time to go and enjoy some spouse time.
