5 days out...

Jul 17, 2010

Thank  goodness my angels have been watching out for me. It's been a tough few days since my surgery. I've had a lot of discomfort because of the gaz and I managed to tear a couple of my stitches... ugh! I'm very fortunate to have my mom and sweety looking after me. They dote on me and trust me, I'm lapping it up like a kitten and cream! And when they  aren't looking after me I have a home care nurse who comes in and checks me over. I feel truly blessed.

I'll be even happier when this phase is behind me though. I was feeling pretty discouraged when I got on the scales for the first time only to discover I gained 11 lbs! Unbelievable! So far, I've lost 5 of them - 6 more to go... can't wait to get my momentum back.

I'm trying to stay positive, but the truth is I've had a few moments of self pity. I guess that's normal. But I have to try and stay focussed - keep my eyes on the prize... All of this is going to be  a blurr before long...
