I'm Home...



Recommended Posts

I came home today. My surgery and recovery so far has been uneventful.

THis was the best decision I've ever made for myself. All that nervous energy was wasted. I was doing well even after surgery.

Today, I'd like a snack. No food for 2 weeks. This is messing with my head. Otherwise, I'm fine. Dr told me to keep moving and moving.

No laying around though.

I will post again this weekend.

Sorry DH barely had time to call my family let alone do anything extra,

my daughter kept crying too. Especailly when she had to leave last night.

Welcome to bandland! Very happy to hear things are going well for you.

By no food for two weeks, do you mean youre on liquids? If so, never fear. The liquids will keep you full. Be sure to get in your protein! :confused:

Thanks ladies. I'm excited about losing weight, but I'm such a money driven person, I'm actaully looking to break off my relationship with walgreens' pharmacy. Losing this weight will hopefully get me off this hypertension medicince, which in the long run is so, so worth it.

My NY family know's about the surgery courtsey of my 5 year old daughter. THey seem very concerned. I'm glad they know.

My husband is exhausted, my daughter thinks she should get new toys and I gotta get myself scrubbed up. I am surprised at how well I felt Wednesday and Thursday and now I feel like the truck ran me down.

I will be in touch. I'm probably gonna be bored being home, seen as Dr B told me the worse thing to do is lay around and take it easy.
