hey all!1

Thanks again for all of the msgs! Im on teh road to recovery...i was even able to sleep on my side yesterday. The port only hurts when i try to bend or move, but other than that its ok. Im just taking parcetamol...but other than that im feeling good! Im able to drink alot more today...and trying to keep up with the fluids. Im not hungry at all.

lilysmommy: as soon as i woke up from the anesthetic i was sick (think my body is just sensitive) ...but after that i felt fine. As soon as i got back to the room i was up and walking about after 1 hr. xx

gg,

Glad you're doing well. I had my surgery yesterday and other than the sore incisions, I feel rather great. I had the nausea too after surgery. As soon as I got into the car to go the hotel, I thought I would throw up. Got to the hotel and started dry heaving. I just knew I would throw up, but thank God I didn't. How are you feeling today? Let's get this weight loss party on and poppin. :party:

No I didn't have to have the heparin injections. What are they for? Pain? I just have a pain elixir to take orally for pain. Have a GREAT day!!!
