I'm home and feeling

FAB!  I have no pain or gas and haven't had any  drugs for 1 1/2 days.  Yesterday I didn't have a good water or protein day.  Water has picked up today and I may need to stay up late to get it all in.  LOL.  I finally found some clear liquid protein I can stand in Unjury chicken broth.  It's really not too bad.  The Isopure water is AWFUL!!!!  My daughter and granddaughter were over this morning so we had a good time and Alexa couldn't believe how Gramma wasn't even sick.....she was the same. I have been wanting Tomato Soup all day.  Never even liked Tomato Soup!  Go figure.  I guess IO can have it in another week so we'll see if it's all it's cracked up to be.  THanks-you all for your prayers and well wishes and can't wait to meet you guys soon.  I may even venture out to meet the Sartell group while I'm off work.  Sherry will keep me posted.  Sherry is the greatest and has been so supportive.  Love that girl! Did get to watch Biggest Loser last night.  Hubby taped it on Tuesday night for me so that was my evening entertainment.  I was so concerned I would miss it with surgery being on Tuesday but John pulls through again.  I truly feel blessed to have found him.  He's the greatest. Merry Christmas to all and may you treasure the moments and simple blessings that matter most this Christmas. Bonnie

Bonnie, I am so happy to hear that you are home and doing great!! Wishing you all the best on this new journey.  Happy Holidays.

Hi Angela, Hope you are doing well.  Has the pain on the left side gone away?  Are you doing OK with the water and protein?  I'm struggling with both and found out last nite I can't do juice diluted.   Bonnie

Hi Bonnie, thanks for asking about me.  The pain is getting better! Its still there from time to time. I'm doing great with water. I have always loved water. The protein not so much. I'm out today to try some protein that I will like. What I have loved through all of this is popsicles!  Wishing you the best!!

AWESOME!!  Glad to hear you are home and doing soooo well!  And welcome to the loser's bench!!!! 

Feels good to be sitting on the bench.  Merry Christmas to you and your family! Bonnie

Bonnie, So good to hear from you and it sounds like you are doing fantastic!!! I hope all continues to go well with you and you have a great Holiday season!! Merry Christmas to you!!  I am probably goingto try  to setup the next St Cloud Group Coffee for the first Saturday in January. Which would be Jan 5. I will post on the boards when we get a bit closer. Sure would be super nice to meet you. You are right about Sherry, she is wonderful.  CarolN

Thanks Carol,  I will look for your update on coffee in St. Cloud.  Maybe I'll be good for a day trip by then.  I so appreciate this board and the folks that are a part of it! Merry Christmas Carol! Bonnie
