She lives!!!!!

Hello, Well, I'm finally out of the hospital, after 11 days of incarceration. Let's just say that I wouldn't reccommend emergency abdominal surgery as an alternative to visiting a vaction resort. I'm back home to the simple pleasures of watching my son be goofy and snuggling with my kittens. If good news could be extracted from all the "fun" (heprin shots, BAD) of being in the hospital..... I can now say that I am a member of Onderworld. I am offically 199. My personal goal has been reached. Both my size and weight begin with a one. Once I heal up a bit, and get back on with living everyday, normal life, instead of this roller coaster ride I've been on (Trust me, the hospital is no amusement park, even though you get wristbands that let you ride all the rides.) I look forward to attempting what I've always invisioned as the impossible dream, 150lbs. I hope all is well with you, and that I can manage to have no further "fun" complications. Gosh

Hey Gosh, welcome back! I'm glad you're finally home and on your way to feeling better. Congrats on making it into Onderland ! You were very much missed. Take care and take it easy. Elisa

Hello Elisa, Thank you for your kind words. I keep getting up and down, and every once in a while I check to see what's up on here. I'm so glad to be home. Gosh

I missed your humor!!! I am so happy to see that face on the message board!! welcome back girl. I'm glad your feeling better!!! Lana the Lurker RNY 2/14/06

Hello Lana the Lurker! Thanks. It's a good thing someone appreciates my *cough* perspective. My heart and sould is in my son's smile. Nothing is better to me in the world. Gosh

I missed you and am so relieved you are home and OK. Congrats on your weight goal. Stay healthy! xosm

Thanks Gigi, Still working on the healthy part, but I'm so very glad to be out of the hospital. It makes me both tired and restless at the same time. Gosh

Good to see you back Gosh, Hope from here on out everything is smooth sailing. Congrats on getting in the 100 range. Take care.

Thanks a whole bunch Tony! I was looking at your photo and man, your face is sure thinning out. Congrats to you too. I personally think I've had more than my share of major surgeries this year, so hopefully no more. I never did get to go to full, regular, solid foods. I sure look forward to it. Heck, I'll "settle" for being back on beans and cheese. Gosh

So glad that you are home and safe and sound... Congrats on the onederland accomplishment but heck you didn't need to go check into the hospital to get there !! Take care of yourself and get some real rest. - Terri
