Surgery over and I came home yesterday!!

Hello friends! I made it! According to the docs, all went well, and I got home from the hospital yesterday evening about 4. I am sore, but actually doing pretty well. I haven't needed any insulin since before surgery, so it is already a GREAT success!! Today I will focus on fluids and protein, I fell short yesterday, but the three hour journey home from the hospital really took a toll on me. I slept well last night though, and today I am eager to stick to the gameplan! Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes!!

Let the games begin! Welcome to the losers bench, it's a great place to be. It's a little bumpy sometimes, but it smooths out......

I also got discharged yesterday! Here's to joining the losers bench!

Way to go you two...I can't wait till my turn comes to be on the losers bench...

Hi I too came home yesterday and am feeling pretty good.  I also had a huge hernia when the doctor got in there he said it was like having 2 surgeries.  Can not wait to get rid of drain!

Congratulations to all three of you ladies. It is such an exciting time. Good luck.

Congrads and please don't worry if for the first couple of weeks you don't meet your protein goals.  Your main goal should be to keep hydrated.  Get plenty of rest and allow yourself time to heal.  Your days should be filled with sip, sip and walk.  Good luck and keep us posted.

Congratulations to all on your successful surgeries!  I'm glad to hear you're home safe and doing well.  Best wishes for much success on your journeys!

I too came home yesterday.  :) Feeling sore, and a bit tired, but good. !
