I'm back home and glittering again!

I'm approaching perky once again!  They ran in 2 liters and I drank another 17 oz so I'm doing well.  I think I can even have some chicken and HappyCat has demanded another bottle of liquids, Gatorade something, before I go to bed.  Thanks Ruth for the suggestion to call the nurse's station.  I was probably doing worse than I realized.  Thanks to everyone else for your well wishes.  It makes me feel really good! WW was wonderful as always.  We had a good time, if you can believe that.  Just wondering how much this little episode is going to cost me!  It really doesn't matter - I had to do it. So if I can get dehydrated, anyone can.  Please make sure you monitor your intake of fluids.  Do a better job than I've been doing!  You can bet I'll be more compliant now.  Don't like being on the receiving end of the big old needle! I love you guys!  And special love to my sister, HappyCat, who insisted on driving from MWC to take me to the hospital.  I'm sure I was capable of driving myself but she insisted!  (DH in out of town this weekend!)

Kim, I am glad that you are back home and all is well. I should have given you the extra labels for your scrapbook. LMAO. Keep drinking and you did the right thing. Love ya, Rita

Hope you don't see a payroll deduction.....

So glad you got checked out and you are better..... Take care of yourself.  Guess we need a daily how much liquid have you had thread.... :)

That's a really good idea.  It's easy for me to just get kinda lax about liquids and forget how vital this issue is.  Won't be forgetting any time soon again!  Thank you!

Hooray for being home and hydrated!!! Keep drinking your fluids and try your best not to let them quickly escape from the other end. ; ) Glad your glitterin' for us again!!!

The chewable Immodium I took really helped a lot.  I think I'm finally better in that arena! Thanks Shelly!

KIM GLAD TO SEE YA HOME AND WELL JUICED UP.  I AM HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING ALL MY FLUIDS IN ALSO SINCE I WENT BACK TO WORK. I THINK I NEED TO GET ME A WATCH WITH A TIMER ON IT SO EVERY 10-15 MINUTES I GO AND GET A FEW SIPS OF WATER, OTHER WISE I WILL END UP IN THE  SAME BOAT AS YOU. AND ALTHOUGH I WORK AROUND BIG OLD NEEDLES EVERYDAY I DON'T LIKE TO BE ON THE OTHER END OF THEM EITHER. I'LL BE PRAYING FOR YA SISTA

I will tell you guys I am once again dazzzled by the care at Weight Wise.  Where else could you get a call from the surgeon within 15 minutes ( lucky to get a call back fro PCP in a week!)?  And, when you arrive where else could you get 2 RNs to take care of you and the respiratory therapist (our own Ms Rita) to work on checking you into the computer system?? Yes, Kimmy was in worse shape than she realized.  What are big sisters for but to nag?  We went into this together and we will deal with all the ups and downs together! Moral of the story- don't get behind on your liquids!  Don't go walk in the park with your buddies without getting in a good amount of liquid BEFORE you go sweat! Denise

Kim, glad you are feeling better. Since I am not a good drinker I will keep thinking of your lesson to help me!
