I was just coming out of surgery!  Wow, what a month it has been for me!  I still cant believe I really went through with it!  I had a rough time, for my little wussy self!  Went to the Emergency Room once for massive pain and got some nice muscle relaxers....lol  Then tried to go back to work and got really sick. I was so miserable for days and then finally the Dr. put me on Carafate and that seems to help, (I'm still on it).  But I had to go back to full liquids and now I'm starting over with soft foods again.  Thats been a challenge, I still get a little sick when I eat certain things.  But I feel 100% better!!  i'm back to work now and getting back to normal.  I was so tired of being home and being sick and in pain!  But like everyone said..."it does get better"!   I am down 27 pounds and have lost several inches!   I'm starting to walk more now and we are doing a walking program at work so that helps too!  Well I definately learned alot about myself and what I could handle!  I do feel like a different person and it does take some getting used to the new changes in my life, but I am very excited for whats to come!   Thank you everyone for your advice and support as well!    I hope everyone has a great day!!
Happy 1 month to me!   LOL
