daily miles stones...

Well the day of my surgery the Dr told me to walk my door and back - the nurse came in that night had had me walking down to the nurses station and back.... I did walk a little further each day. I look back and I am glad that the nurse pushed me. I had also stopped the morphine pump two days post op so I could walk more and feel more in control of my thoughts.

Got to come a day early.. YEAH

got out on Friday, went to Garden Ridge and Hobby Lobby.

got out on Saturday walked the lower and uppper level of the mall

went to the grocery store on Sunday

Monday went to Hobby Lobby, Wal-Mart and Target. Clean the kitchen and did laundry.

Tuesday back to Garden Ridge looking for placemats since I have a dining room table now. Oh and I have not had any pain meds since last night at 9:00pm .. feeling good - a little sore - but good.

Wow you are really active...
My surgery is on Friday and I can't hardly wait. I like your post because I too have issues with taking pain meds... I just do not like not being in control. I have been told by my doctor that the day of surgery I will be up walking and will be encouraged to continue...
I am so proud of you.. you are doing really good and your attitude is wonderful
good luck and keep on loosing
