I am home, have been for a couple of hours. It's been a busy couple of hours. My mom went to the pharmacy and got my dilaudid. I just took one and will be heading to bed. Just had my protein shake dinner. MMM MMM it was good. I wasn't hungry but knew I needed to have dinner. I have met and exceeded my goal for fluids and walking today and now I am ready for a good rest in my own bed without the noise of construction!! Thank you everyone for your support. I still can't wrap my head around this. I can't believe it's really going to happen. I am really going to lose my excess and I really will get down there!! One day at a time. There was a scale in the hallway this morning when I went for a walk and I hopped on. I was up 6lbs from the IV and the liquids I was taking in. I can't wait to see it drop though! LOL It will be interesting to see when it does.

Fitness is not about age or a size -- it's really about an attitude and life style!!!
Life is not measured by the number of breathes we take, but by the moments that take our breathe away~~

Welcome home, loser! I am so happy for you and so happy all went well. We should start working out together once you're up to it. I have always admired how active you are and inspire to be like you...that's also a great factor working for you in this process. Love ya, Peggy
