I originally created this blog to keep account of my experiences with my Lapband surgery on October 1, 2010. Two years after having the bad and another child, I had to have it removed after finding it was defective. In it's place I had the gastric sleeve done. Here you'll be able to read some of my rants and ramblings on about the day to day life with the gastric sleeve. Enjoy.

The Beginning Is Upon Us
It's Tuesday night and tomorrow morning will be the last time I have food for 30 days. Of course I'll still be taking in calories, the difference will be that now they will be in liquid form only as my stomach heals from surgery. I'm not nervous, I never get nervous before surgery, but I'm just ready to get it over and done with and get to healing. I hope I have everything I will need for post surgery. I bought gallons of soup/broths, flavored waters, and herbal teas. I bought a few Jell-Os but to be honest, I HATE Jell-O. Ken put a handful of movies on the laptop for me to watch while I'm in the hospital, but I may end up sleeping the whole time. He's going to drive home Thursday night and come back up in the morning on Friday so I won't have company that night. In two weeks I will go back for a post-op follow up and the doctor will determine if I can add drinkable yogurts to my diet.
I'm excited for Christmas. It will be Emmett's first Christmas and Aidan will be getting a new bike from Uncle Matt so he'll be stoked.
Stay tuned for post-op updates!(If the world doesn't end of course)
