September friends :)

Hi there Jadrad-

Welcome to bandland. I echo Chris that every day feels better. Today is my one week anniversary and I am feeling pretty good. I have 5 incisions although one of them (i guess where the port is) is much larger than I expected. Three of the incisions are already pretty much healed. It's just the larger one that is still sensitive. I have bandaids on them, and yesterday I wore shorts that the waist band was laying on top of the larger incision, and it didn't hurt. It's nice to be back to almost full mobility. I am notiicing that I still tire a bit fast, but I am happy with the recovery so far.

Dezzy- I feel the same way lack of restriction. I know it's "normal" and these weeks aren't for losing weight, but for healing. It is HARD not to want those instant results!I lost 9 lbs in the week before surgery and about 6 lbs since then and I know I should be like- great!, but I have scale addiction and keep wanting to see those numbers go down down down.

Ginger- Two more days! :)
