THURSDAY GRATEFUL POST
Hope everyone is having a great week. I had a stomach virus last night and lets just say it wasn't pretty. Hope everyone is drinking lots of fluids since our weather is starting to heat up. It is so easy after WLS to dehydrate so please everyone drink lots and lots of water. We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for. We all take lots of things for granted and don't even realize it. I know I am extremely guilty of this myself. This post is a reminder to everyone that no matter how bleak life seems....it could always be so much worse. PLEASE feel free to share with us what you are grateful for today. Today I am so grateful for.......
My Faith and answered prayers,
My life and health,
My WLS and all the choices for WLS's for everyone to choose,
My Family and friends,
For my 3 son's and DIL,
For having a home, food to eat, and car that is dependable,
For my husband's job,
For Obesity Help and all the encouraging words spoken on these message boards,
For the upcoming OH Conference in New Orleans, La. Sept 9-10.

I just got over a horrible stomach virus myself. I am 9mths post op with zero complications so farand that virus was so bad I thought i was having a complication. Thank God it wasn't and I made sure I stayed hydrated and at least keep down the vitamins. I did have to start back to stage 1 eating while i recovered. how long did it take you to be able to eat normally again? I had the virus from thursday to monday. I am still weak but at least i am able to keep thinks down. Glad you are better also

My virus was just last night. I couldn't even keep fluids down. So I just went to bed and slept it off. I am keeping coffee down this AM so I guess I am over it. Sorry that you had such a long bout with the virus. Sometimes you do have to go back to the beginning after a long bout with illness. It is not fun that is for sure. I am 5 1/2 yrs. post op so I don't really have to start back to stage one anymore. I will eat bland things today though. I don't want to do anything to have a repeat of last night. Hope you feel better really soon.
