It's official, I'm a Bandit!

Well, I did it. I got banded yesterday.

And all in all, I'm feeling surprisingly well. I started this journey at 300lbs, day of surgery I was 287, and today I am at 285.3. Not so bad considering that I only started this journey in the end of June.

I think that the worst part about the whole thing is that I really haven't told anyone about this. Except for my husband, my 1 co-worker that I consider close like a sister, and my doctors...that's about it. I know that I am supposed to have a support system, and I do, but there are just some things that I don't like to talk about. I guess this is my way of getting it out.

It is really killing me that I haven't been able to talk to my mom about it, but since she moved to Florida, and she has been going through so much down there, I don't want to worry her with this too. I will tell her some time.

Until then, I am going to head back to my clear liquids and my bed.
