sleeved on NOV 3 in mexico.. Home in Canada Nov 7

Well - I did it... I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it all just yet but I'm sure I'll be happy I did it... I still feel guilty and right now.. Nov 8 - I'm right back into the swing of raising 3 small kids and 3 dogs..... and today I feel like crap - there is no way to sugar coat it. Yesterday was a great day - actually Nov 5 and 6 were great days, I even went shopping on both days and just enjoyed myself. Today however I felt rushed to be"normal" and so I did too much laundry, swept and bleached the entire main floor of the house and now - I'm paying for it.

 

I went with my sister in law to get the surgery done and we both had exact opposite recoveries... and now that we are home - her mom is here so she sleeps all day to continue recovering while I chase 3 kids.... I'm feeling very jealous and I'm embarrassed to even say that. I'm also dealing with my time of the month ( was at the last day and then surgery totally screwed with it and it's like I have to deal with it from the beginning... as if I never had it)

 

I went into surgery at 213 - next day I was 217 (lol can we say fluids????) today Nov 8 I'm weighing in at 210..

 

so I'm hoping that the next few days of recovery go well.. I'm hoping for more energy and being able to eat something.

 

It's been text book recovery - for someone without kids lol
