What a weekend!

I had a wonderful weekend in Ohio. We met some of my husbands old high school friends, we went to see a Buckeye's game, we had a blast! I'm so glad we did it, even though I'm dragging today. I'll post pictures soon. On the band front, my fill is definitely working. It's taking me a bit to get used to being tight again, but I'm definitely enjoying the change in my appetite. I met two bandsters this weekend, they are both a year out and doing well, they are a couple and he is like me, he's only had 2 fills and is only at 3ccs and really has good restriction, she has had many fills and is at 9 ccs and still really doesn't have much restriction. It's amazing to me how different every ones journey is. So, it's definitely Monday and lots of catching up to do at work. Have a great day!

Got a fill yesterday!

I got a fill yesterday. I was apprehensive, because I just didn't want to be too tight. After talking with my doctor, we decided I needed one. I got 1cc, which brings me to 3cc's in a 10cc band. He pulled the fluid out and said I hadn't lost any fluid and said that he's been hearing a lot about leaky ports. He then said that the needles you are supposed to use for a fill are more expensive and some doctors use and IV needle instead which can lead to leaks. This fill hurt, I mean I felt like he was going to push my port through my back, but I definitely feel a difference. I've had 1/2 of banana this morning and I'm full. A while back I mentioned that I had this "thick" feeling area on my stomach that in the beginning I thought was my port. I made my doc feel it yesterday and explained that it doesn't hurt, it just feels different and it definitely wasn't like that before the surgery. He said he wants to do an ultrasound next week to make sure it isn't a hernia. Like I said, it doesn't hurt, it's just weird. I'll be happy to know for sure that it's nothing. I'm glad I got this fill, although I've been really kind of scared about it. My husband and I are going to Ohio this weekend to see some of his high school buddies and to go to a Buckeye game! I'm excited for the weekend, and hope I can remember to be very careful with this new fill. Have a great Wednesday!

My posts are out of order!

I posted part of my Saturday pics and can't figure out how to change the date to today instead of Sunday, any advice?

Homecoming pics to share.

I still haven't finished downloading pics from Saturday Night in Chicago. They take so long, because you have to do them one at a time. I hope to have them up by tomorrow. Anyway, I thought I'd share a few pics from Homecoming weekend. Hope you all have a great Monday!
Hugs!

BYOC

1.Are you late, early or on time?
I am early or on time, I hate to be late and I hate it when others are late, especially if they don't call to tell me.

2. Name 3 things you dislike and 3 things you like:
Dislike:

Waking up when I don't want to

Waste

lies

Like:
Family
Musical Theatre
Fall weather

3. Are you a morning or night person?
I don't like to wake up in the morning sometimes, but the older I get the more I like the morning. If it's after dark and I sit still for more than a few minutes, I want to go to sleep.

4. What is your favorite clothes store?
CATO. It has inexpensive clothes, but they are stylish and they have plus sizes and regular sizes with accessories in the middle. One day I too will veer to the right!!

5. Repeat question: Summarize your week in life and in blogland. Wow, it's always hard to go back to work after you've had an exciting weekend. I've been playing catch up in all areas, this weekend I will wash til the laundry is done! And it's homecoming week, lots of preparation and football, tonight is the dance. And then, of course BOOBS on the brain, Chicago was a wonderful experience. I'm so glad I went. I really can't wait til next year!

Other than that, I can't believe it's already Friday! I plan to sleep late tomorrow and then clean house like Martha Stewart's coming to visit! Happy weekend guys!

Big Hug!
