So tonight was tops as usual. Followed by dinner at our usual (Cracker Barrel). Last Tuesday I couldn't even keep down sips of coffee. I was able to keep down some tomato soup here and there since then. Well today at work I decided to try some mashed potatoes. It stayed down! What a good feeling. But it got even better at dinner. I shared a dinner with my dad. I had chicken & more taters. That stayed down. I feel pretty good even. I have a little bit of pain in my back but it is nothing like the pressure I have/had when I have tried before. This is more along the lines of being from being full. I realize that sounds ironic that I was happy to be able to eat and keep it down. Well, this is the first real food I have been able to eat and KEEP down since my fill on 3/3/09. After everything that has happened since my banding (flipped port, seroma, infected incision, blister on my incision, 2 failed attempts at fills since Dec surgery) I was very, very concerned that with my luck, that my band had slipped. The feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop. My luck has been lately, if something is going to happen it's going to happen to me.
Yes, I am trying to be more positive. Having my most recent fill has helped my morale.
Signing off, working on being more healthy and positive :)
