LapBand minus TWO and 1/2 HOURS

LapBand minus TWO and 1/2 HOURS

Monday July 10, just before 6:30AM.

We are leaving for the hospital in a few minutes. LapBand minus Two and 1/2 hours. I am as ready as I'll ever be. My only regret is that during my "Last Meals" that I forgot to have a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich. I ate out so much that week, I forgot to have a PB&J! Oh well. Perhaps down the road.

To deal with both my fears and my $16,500 rant aggravation, I have physically exhausted myself. I worked in the yard Friday night past dark, I worked at my rental property most of Saturday, with a 45 minute break where a friend who does not I'm getting a LapBand called me to tell me that if I lost 50-100 pounds I would "have more luck with the ladies". I'll talk about that someday down the road.  Yesterday I worked at the finish line of the MS 150 and grilled 500 + hamburgers for the riders, I came home smelling like a giant hamburger and survived. So, I guess I dealt OK with being around food.

I weighed myself last night on my home scale that widely fluctuates. I lost between 13 and 20 pounds on it during my 10 days of liquid. I took 7 measurements and all came up in that range. So, I know that something happened. We will see in a few hours if it was good enough or not.

Well, wish me luck. I'm of to the Wonderful World of LapBands!
