I've Lost my first post surgery 10 lbs!
So, I'm home from the hosp. yesterday and after they pumped me full of fluids, I felt like Oh... I won't show any weight loss for another week or so - and my Dr. agreed. This morning I wake up from a really good night's sleep - (first time I've slept really well since surgery), look in the mirror and say to myself, gee... my face looks a little thinner. No, really, it does. So, just for a laugh I stepped on the scale and then my eyes popped!
(I just love this lil' emoticon)
My weight is down 10 pounds. I'm so happy! I think the worst is over and I'm really on my way now! Feeling Lighter!
