Hey all you May'ers! I'm Home On The Losin' Side

Hi - Just got home from the hospital this afternoon - had surgery May 2nd. Wow - I am sooo sore (open RNY) but I can see that it's getting better. I weigh 9 pounds more than I did when I went in in - but I hear that will drop off. What a whirlwind! I'm glad to be home and looking forward to getting into a routine! Woo Hoo I'm a loser! Ah ha uh huh uh huh! OUCH - yeah well, I will dance later when I'm not so sore! Caren +9 (ha ha)

Congrulations - remember sip, sip, sip, walk, walk, walk. It WILL get better. Thanks for posting. We are all with you!! Barb in CA going in May 20

Thanks Barb! I sure appreciate the support and ya'll being here with me - will be there with you on the 20th! Caren

Welcome home Caren! Glad to hear things went well for you! Be careful dancing...wait a little bit. hugsssssss Krista WLS TOMORROW!!!

GOOD LUCK KRISTA! Will definately be thinking of you and sending prayers your way. And the dancing will have to wait a while for sure - ouch - I just got a little too excited! Caren

Thanks so much Vicki! I am not weighing myself - don't even know where those scales are! I will be thinking of you on the 18th and maybe by then can do a 'little' dance! Caren

Hey, Caren, are your intestines singing? I'm so gurgly and I had and open done, too. Sip, sip, sip, YA RIGHT! Lortabs are my new favorite drug!!!!! I came back from hospital at the EXACT same weight I went in. Remember to laugh often everyday, it will heal your incision faster! Hugs, Becky Jean

Hi Becky Jean My goodness are my intestines singing!! It's amazing. And yep - I'm sipping like there's no tomorrow - wow! I go from laughing to crying - often - everyday and both seem to hurt! But I can tell today that it is not quite as sore. Hanging in there! Caren
