Topic: RE: I am on my way!!!!!
What a great positive attitude you have.
I was wondering how you were doing. I'm glad you're finally feeling better.
I was surprised to wake from surgery to find I had it done lap. I fully expected open.
Now that you're on the mend, it won't be long now.
Look out world, her comes Teanonna.
Hugs

I'm so glad you're home and made it through. I'm sorry you're having so much pain and I hope it doesn't last long.
Just rest and heal up. Keep us updated as you feel better.

I'm so jealous of your energy. i've had weightloss success, i've lost my diabetes and blood pressure meds, but while i've had a few days of good energy, i'm still mostly napping and vegging. i went to the grocery store for exercise and came home and slept for 3 hours! I think i'm fighting slight dehydration that i'm trying to cure with extra water. oy
I guess we all have a different pathway to success! Keep up your great work!

I guess it's just the ole guts trying to heal...my stomach also looks like it's pushed in next to my navel where there was an incision...looks kind of deformed...hope that is only temporary! anyone else end up with a deformed looking stomach?? lol oh well...I'm sure once the fat is gone it will all look even...at least I'm hoping for that!! do you sleep on your side at all? i can manage to sleep on my right side and then it hurts like heck to roll back over to my back and I don't even attempt my left side...not that much of a masochist!
Topic: RE: 2 week check up and I've already been out dancing.
I'm sorry you have the pain. Any idea what causes this? I didn't know it was a comon thing. I guess I'm lucky I don't have it.
I'm glad you don't have to go back to work.... sorry you don't have work to go to now....glad since you hate your job LOL.
Congrats on losing 5lbs. That's 5lbs gone forever!!!! and soon you'll be banishing the rest too.
You keep up the good work too!

That's great Darlene! I have lost only 5 lbs since surgery (but I can tell in my clothes that I have lost inches) and have the dreaded left side pain! lol Oh well...I know it will eventually go away. I can't imagine going back to work...thank goodness I am currently laid-off...not to mention I hate my job! I don't regret having the surgery for a minute! Keep up the good work!!

Suzle,
I think it was right around day 6 that I started feeling the energy. After that, each day it increased 10 fold.
Right from the start I felt "not tired" and didn't feel like sleeping, but I would tire physically pretty easily.
I didn't have much pain either. It was great. I asked the surgeon if he actually did the surgery or if he just poked a few holes in my belly LOL.
I'm going to the gym so hopefully that helps me channel this new found energy.
Oh, you said it, "succeeding at last" I wonder if that has something to do with it? I KNOW this is going to happen now, finally after so many years of struggling. I wonder if it's not excitement that's keeping me going. I really feel it's a new exciting journey and I'm pumped to get on with a normal life.
We truly are blessed.

Sweetbabi,
Isn't this energy amazing? I feel like a super woman who can take on the world. I didn't think I'd be back to work this soon either. (I'm a stay at home mom with all those nasty jobs LOL) The family is very glad to have me back. Laundry was getting piled up LOL.
