Life is good...

Really, it is.  The month of April, not so good.  But I have gotten through so much and I am feeling so much better now.  I have had every test done, and all negative, meaning I am in GREAT health.  My body has "settled down" now and I am able to eat again.  Dr says I must be in the 2 percentile of people that have an allergic reaction to the actual LapBand material.  Or, my body just rejected it.  Hmmm.  Maybe LapBands are not good for Italians, LOL.  Anyway, I am getting over the whole ordeal.  Only thing left to get over is the open wound in my tummy now.  I will be off work for a few more weeks...wounds take a long time to heal.  However, I am drinking alot of JP protein shakes, doubling my JuicePlus capsules, and I think I will heal a little faster that way. 
I feel very grateful that I am healthy, despite what happened with the band/surgeries.  I am also very grateful for my family and friends and the wealth of love and support I have received.  Once my wound is healed, it is back to the gym, my trainer, and new running shoes to start training for 5ks!  I can't wait!

Peace and Health,
Melissa
