I made a decision last night and it did not turn out so well!! I am a belly sleeper - always have been!! I love to bury myself into my blankets and pillow and snuggle down in the bed. I remember the point during my pregnancy when I was unable to sleep on my stomach anymore and I was so sad. Since being banded, I have not slept on my stomach because I feared that it would hurt. Last night I thought, it's been over a month, SURELY I can sleep on my stomach now. WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my stars!!! I woke up in the middle of the night and the spot where my port is was hurting so bad!! :( Is this normal?? Is it because it isn't completely healed inside?? Will I ever be able to sleep on my tummy again??? Ugh...if you know the answers to these questions, please advise! I know that sleeping like that is not good for your back - yeah, yeah, yeah! Hahahha. I will tell you this....this chick will be waiting a while before trying that again! Boo!!! Dislike!! Hiss!! :)
Other notes....
I got on the scale Monday morning (yesterday) and I am at 340.0. The 330's are lurking just around the corner - I can see them!!!! So hoping that I am there on Friday - can you see me crossing my fingers? I am still feeling a difference in my clothes. I would say most noticeably in my bra - sorry if that's TMI!! My husband is not liking that part!! :) Also noticing a slight difference in my pants - like in the leg and the seat. They are droopy and saggy....both good things if you are trying to lose weight. I keep telling myself that it's designed to be a gradual process.....
waiting........................................................................
I sleep on my stomach...don't remember exactly when I was able to start doing this...but it will come.
