I'm home....
Thanks for all the support. I tried to post last night but my computer was acting buggy. I got home yestarday around 3:00. The surgery went exceptionally well. The only time I am taking pain meds is when I need to get some sleep. I am moving a little slower than normal, but have been up and walking since the day of the surgery. The nurse was surpised, but the one advice I keep getting is walk, walk... it is keeping the gas down. Every time I move a little more gas passes and I get more comfortable. MY enegry level goes up and down. I find all this energy and will make the bed or throw in laundry. Then have to take a quick nap. My DH is all over taking care of me, so I want to rest when I can.
Good luck to all those about to join us on the losing side.

Welcome home Donna,
Glad to see you're making a great recovery. You sure have the right mode of thinking. Walk, walk, walk!! It hurts though, doesn't it? It did me, felt like my guts were being pulled out, probably from the muscle being cut. I hope you continue to do well and are losing weight like crazy!!!
Take care,
Kelly
