I am home from surgery.....

Congratulations Jen!! Even though walking may be uncomfortable, I found it really helped with the pain. And the gas!! :D

Welcome home Jen Get your rest and keep drinking and posting! ~ Rebel Lady ~

Jen, Welcome to the losing side! The pain will soon be a distant memory and the gas will pass (pun intended)! Walk as much as you can and sip, sip, sip! Vickie J.

Jen, Congrats on making it to the losing side. Glad all went well. The pain and gas will soon pass and the weight will begin to fall off. Your seat is warm on the losers bench. Welcome to the other side. Kat

Congrats......now walk walk walk walk.....walk some every 4 hours or so....it prevents blood clots. Its important.... Don't worry about protein......... Don't worry about eating............ And do keep getting in the water....... You are doing great.....and it will get better soon..... Hope you made yourself some home made broth...like chicken or beef broth. It's wonderful when you get tired of the bland clear liquids. Heal well and keep posting. See you soon at support group. Hugs Charlie
