wow, just found your videos...you will be fine. I had no pain following surgery. I just had gas like a train engine trying to go through my intestines...

Best of luck to you. May God continue to bless you.

Yay! So happy for you. Yes, rest but walk too (little bits to get the blood moving). And don't forget to keep deep breathing from time to time. Look out world here comes MJ!!

Donna:)

[ladyblue3]

I thought the doctors and nurses were crazy when they told me to get up and walking, but now its so much easier and I actually want to do it. I don't think I said this before, but I think its awesome that you are going for bariatric nursing.

[cbranch76]

So happy to know that you are doing well.

[ladyblue3]

Thanks Cat! I almost made the 10 pound weight loss for 10/15. How did you do?

Fab, Thanks so much for the protein soups you sent me. I've been sipping on them and they are really good- at least they are to my post op taste buds. I hope you're feeling better and better each day.

[MissJanieHere]
