I'm Home from surgery

Hi all!  I am back home safe and sound in Kearney and finally at last I am on the losers bench with the rest of you.  Surgery went very well and the lap band is in place.   Saw the doctor today and got my staples out and then headed home.  Spent time with my daughter in Lincoln after surgery.  I will write more later it is late and I need to relax and hit the hay.  Thanks again for all the kind words and prayers, they did work.  Linda eloc29

Yeah!...........rest up.....I rested off and on for like 10 days...and then I just woke up with all kinds of energy and it hasn't stopped yet....thank goodness... keep us posted..........

I took off 2 weeks from work, the first few days I felt lousy from all the air they pump in you.   I also wasn't drinking enough at first and that can make you feel kind of sluggish. Good luck.......... I live in Grand Island, but have had all my other surgeries (not the lap band) done in Kearney, I am really impressed with the care I got there at Good Samaritan.

Hi Linda, I am so glad to hear you are doing well. Welcome to the losing side. Mona

Glad you are doing ok.  I was wondering how everything went.  Get lots of res****er, and exercise when you are tired of sleeping.  It really does help to "ahhhhh" feeling after surgery.  Let us know how you are doing when you feel up to it.

Good luck on your new journey.

Linda, you are on the ride of your life.  Hang on and enjoy the scenery.  Especially the new skinny you.  Make sure you look out for yourself and do what the doc told you to do.  Keep us posted.  We have a vested interest in you my friend.  Hazel

Welcome home Linda and congrats on beginning an exciting new journey in your life!  I sure miss Kearney.  I went to college there and that's where I packed on a good portion of this weight I'm trying to lose!!!  Between supervising the north Amigos, and working extra shifts at Dairy Queen, and drinking way too much beer from the Bottle Barn, I was lucky to get out of that town when I did! 

Congratulations, I am so glad that all went well for you are in for an amazing year. Be good to yourself.Blessings
