Surgery was a success!

Well time sure flies! I think I say that alot, then again, I definitely "feel" it alot.

I'm a week out of surgery and I feel pretty good, still a bit tired tho. Surgery went great, of coarse all you remember is waking up in pain! Altru took wonderful care of me, especially Bertha, the night nurse who's been with Altru for about 17 years. She was such a wonderful care giver, not only to me, but to Dorothy my room-mate. At one point Dorthy's back was sore and Bertha took the time to massage her back! now that is a beautiful thing! Thank you Bertha!

I slept most of last week, thanks to some good pain medicine! My daughter and husband(that sounds so weird to say! ha) "husband". Wow! Anyway, her and I did a bit of running around, it did feel good to get out a bit! She's such a great help to me! Always love our time together! Thanks "sissy"! love you!

Monday was back to work, well, I made it about 6 hours, so about 11am I went home, slept from 11:30-3:30(didn't know I could sleep so much). Actually got a good walk in too, felt great to get out and exercise a bit!

I quit taking the pain meds Monday, have been having some headaches tho so Tylenol has been my friend! Other than that I feel great and am very excited to continue this "get healthy" journey! Biggest Loser is such an inspiration to me! Way to go Kae! and, of coarse, all the others!

Tomorrow is my dr apt. I'm excited to step on the scale! I'll keep you posted.

Have a very BLESSED and HAPPY Thanksgiving and think about all you are thankful for! There is so much!

Can't stop eating

No, it's not that time of the month for me, I just can't seem to get a grip on eating this past week and half. I'm not eating like I used to, but seem to feel really hungry and just want to eat dang it! It's a good thing i'm in a regular excersise routine! Geez. I've still lost a couple pounds, mostly because I tell myself I have to work out that much harder. See, this is why I MUST have the surgery, people have asked me over and over. "Kerri, why not do it on your own"? you are doing really good! This is why, I just can't control my eating! Sure some weeks I can, but not others! Surgery is about a week away, a week from this Tuesday, November 6th! Little nervous, but very excited too!
