I AM HOME AND 25 LBS LIGHTER....YAHOOO

Okay everyone...I made it home Wednesday Night and I rested all day yesterday...I feel so good I can't even begin to tell you....

I weighed in first day of pre op diet at 214 this morning I weighed, after a new scale was purchased 189!!!  I have lost 25 lbs in 3 weeks and I am stoked....Biggest thing to remember though is who I am and how easy I could lose this is I'm not the most careful I've ever been.

Your thoughts, phone calls, visits and well wishes were so very important to me...Your outcries of love and caring made me want to hear from my OH Board family more than my own...That wasn't very nice but really you all are so kind and considerate.

I had a little incident with the pain patch last night once I left the hospital I left with a morphine pain patch fendynal I think is the name and man it wasn't like the IV shots but it worked smoothly and comfortably but I woke up last night and I toldl my husband to get the elephants off the bed he was like okay I'm ripping that pain patch off...No problem I said, come get it and that was the end of the pain medicine, cold turkey as of today and no problems...I feel better today than I have in 3 years...Lovin it, just lovin it...

I think I mentioned before that Dr. S removed a hernia, small portion of the bowel which was overtaken by scar tissue, as well as he removed a lot of scar tissue and shortened my common conduit to 100 also while in there he found where I hadn't been bypassed hardly at all during my RNY go figure as successful as my RNY was for me, if it had been done right I don't think I would have ever gone down the surgery path again....

Special thanks to:

You guys were all so kind and if I left anyone out that visited or contacted me, I'm so sorry but I was a little woosy for a few days

Love to all of you, especially you on the journey...
