Scoot over ... Make room on the bench

I'm lounging here in my lovely hospital room. Had surgery this morning. I'm a little sore and tired, but all is well. Thanks for all the support thus far!

Congrats!!!!! We will scoot on down and leave you some room!!

Congrats to you both on having your surgery today. Be good girls and follow your post-op diets, get all your walking in, and keep sipping those fluids. I know you'll do great!!

Congrats to the both of you.

Glad to hear you are both feeling good and your surgery is finished. Please keep us posted on how you are feeling and how you are doing. :biggrin0: It is wonderful to have a support network like this forum. :drool5:

Congratulations!

Now remember:

1) It really does get better every day, by leaps and bounds.

2) Sip, sip, sip. Your number one goal right now is to stay hydrated!

3) Walk when you can manage it, as much as you can manage without burning out.

4) Don't be afraid to take your pain meds, but if you don't need them, don't take them.

5) Do EVERYTHING the doctor tells you to do, even if it seems weird or stupid.

You'll be shedding the pounds like crazy in no time flat! :biggrin0:

good to hear you're doing well, welcome to the loser's bench, you will definitely love your new journey to weight loss!!!:( congrats and goodluck
