I'm alive!

I've feel like I've m been run over by a semi a few times. But wanted to let you know I'm alive and he took off 11.1 pounds! Pics:

I've never had that flat a belly in all my life! Can't wait to hurt less!

I just popped over to check on you and there you were. You look fantastic! So happy for you. Stay on top of your meds.

Thank you, SallyCat!!

I'm now thinking Percocet is better than Demerol

So happy to hear from you! Hang in there and rest. I'll be joining you in a few days!

Thank you so much!! Wishing you lots of luck!

Any last minute advice? I'm excited but getting a little nervous about the painful recovery...

Stay medicated! I'm dreading getting up. Still laying down with the Lovenox shots to prevent blood clots. The catheter is a godsend. So happy to not get up to pee.

everything feels sooo tight. And even my hands and arms are swollen and they didn't do anything ti them.

Weird, but my inner elbows are so sore from being stretched out for so long!

i won't lie, it really hurts. But my doctor said it should get exponentially better every day. Looking forward to that.

Glad to see you are doing well! A week from now life will suck less!

I can't wait!!!!

Oops, reply meant for Marinagirl. I blame Valium. He has a wonderful bedside manner. Even brought me Premier protein shakes in the recovery center when he saw I couldn?t eat and didn?t like liquid protein options they had.

II ended up ordering some via Amazon Prime. They were at the center in an hour and they moved a fridge in about 10 minutes later. Super nice nurses too.
