Home at last

Well here I am at last.  Glad to be in my own home.  Hospital was ok and the surgery was painful to be truthful, I can't lie I really do not want to do this again.   but it is over and I can start my life again.

I think that I really underestimated the gas pains ouch!!! and yesterday I thought that I really was not going to make it..Today I woke up and felt 1000% better
Mad things you do under anaethetic.   1. Hug your anethetist. Thanking him that he kept you alive...Yes girls and boys I did do that or so I have been told..I just about remember this.  Apparantly they got me to move from the operating table to the trolley. I then sat up and gave him a great big hug.  I do not usually do this to strange men (We brits don't usually go in for shows of affection) I think he was a bit pleased though that he had been appreciated like this.
Anyway well on the mend now and hopefully on the losers bench very soon

Hi Sue! Congrats on getting your sleeve and happy to hear you are home!  Sorry to read about the pain you experienced.  Hopefully, each day will be better than the last!

Good to hear you are home. There is nothing like recovering at home. Sorry, to hear you had so much gas pain. Welcome to the loser's bench.

Glad to hear you are home.I know you have heard it before but it really does get better quick.I am 10days out and the last week walking 1.5 miles a day and feel wonderful,I woke up yeasterday and cleaned house for the first time in along time that I wanted to do it. Told hubby in another 50ilb I will be pulling weeds lol . Have a great day and watch the days click by.

was good today until Dear hubby wanted to go shopping at the local supermarket.  Got half way round and felt dizzy and faint.  Think I might have done too much..
Anyway after a cup of tea and a rest feel better again.  Most pain gone now and it is great to have lost some weight only 7lb to go till I get into the 200's that won't take too long hopefully. 
Not really tolerating water so it is cups of tea for me.  I really love tea it is my favourite drink..
Must remember that we have all just had major surgery

Hey Sooz, glad everything went well during your surgery, and you're home and recuperating.  I remember how wiped out I felt that first day home, and then the very next day feeling sooo much better.  My first trip to the grocery store wiped me out also.  But now, it's no big deal.  I walk the entire store, even if I don't need to.  It's a nice way to get my exercise in air conditioning.  It's already getting into the 80's temperature-wise here in Texas. 
I wish you all the best, and welcome to the loser's bench.
