Had my 6 week post-op today!!

Hi everyone! I went back to see Dr. Vaughn today for my 6 week post-op. The drive was wicked....had a tummy ache ALL day!! not sure whats up with that?? .....BUT.....when I got there and got weighed I sure was a happy camper ......I'm down 35lbs!!!!!!! ...wooohoooo! Everything seems to be going as it should...my blood pressure was a lil high this time but he said he's not too worried about it because I did take a decongestant in the morning and that can raise blood pressure(damn post nasal lol) Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know things with me are going great and I'm sooo happy I did this and I'm on my way to a healthier, happier life!!! Hope everyone is having a great week!!! ~hugs~ Konni

Congratulations!!! Glad to hear you are doing well!

Thank you Brooke

Way to go Konni! Cathy

Thank you Cathy

THAT's FANTASTIC!!!! You are doing GREAT, girl!!!! Has any of that 'stuff' I sent been of good use to you???? Oh yeah - you be careful of those decongestants.... I've run into that problem before. Even the nasal spray can sometimes raise it. Coricidin (sp?) makes one for people with high BP. I wish you all the best! You're off to a GREAT start!!! Katie

Thanks Katie!! ....YES!!!! I have gotten a lot of use out of the stuff you sent...I LOVE those lil containers with the spoon!! ...they come in sooo handy!...and I got a really nice foot massage with the little foot massage pack you sent....thanks again hon! Wow I didn't know the nasal sprays could do that too...thanks for letting me know that and thats for the tip on the Coricidin...can I get that at wally world?
