How is everyone doing today?

Well Kathy, I must say I am feeling pretty darn good today!!! I am 8 days post op and I got my jp drain out today! What a relief! Not only that - I have lost 20.5 pounds! WOOHOO! Cindy Lou Who

Congrats: now your on the losing side!

I'm doing great. I'm surviving being on travel way better than I thought I would. I'm doing very well with the food obstacles....in fact, I'm eating better than I would at home. Go figure. I had Salmon last night...was sooooooooo good. It was moist and chewed up very nicely. Tonight, I tried shrimp ****tail. It was good, but since shrimp is chewy....it required a LOT more chewing. I probably won't eat that again for a while. I'm still anxious to get home though. I miss my babies. Pam

I've been a bit blue today too. I think I have too much time on my hands. I'm a teacher and have been on summer vacation. I'm also single with no kids. I feel really weak. I think I've given myself too much recovery time. Sure never thought I'd be complaining about not working. Ha!

Hey Dawn, Get you a hobby, I know what you mean, I don't work, but Hubby works two three, So he is here 7 days out of 14, He keeps me focused! Get out meet some people, Find something too do with your time, Bet your feeling weak will subside..... Smile Kathy

Hi Kathy and all my June and July surgery friends -- I will be 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I've had ups and downs which I'll detail this weekend under my profile if anyone is interested but I believe all the ups and downs will be worth it in the end! Have a good weekend! Laurel from KY
