I'm hooome!
So nice to be home, actually, I got home yesterday! Surgery went well, no complications!
Only thing is one of my incisions keeps bleeding, last night my 4 year old tripped and landed right on my stomach while I was resting on the couch and blood literally was everywhere in seconds. She felt horrible and my husband had a small panic attack but I managed to diffuse the situation. It stopped bleeding pretty quickly but I noticed just a little while ago, after a coughing fit, a bit of blood coming out from under the bandaid. i was told to remove the bandaids tomorrow but i think I will keep that one for a few extra days.
I drank my water today, sipped on a protein shake and ate a bit of cottage cheese. Tomorrow I am going to try to up everything annd hopefully by the time I am one wk post op I will have a fairly acceptable routine down.
Haven't weighed myself and I actually made myself a promise that i wouldnt weigh myself till I get to the Dr.'s for my 3 week checkup... hopefully I can do that! ;)
Thanks to everyone here for their support!

Take care of yourself Sabrina, and I wish you the best of luck on avoiding weighing yourself until your checkup! No matter what, it's got to feel good to be home! :)

Surgery JAN. 19th, 2012 - Down 120 lbs & 75 inches @ my last Weigh in!!!! 
Glad to hear you are home! I loved Dr. Sullivan!
I had some bleeding in the hospital. Stood up and blood was everywhere!! Big mess, but it was fine after a day or two. I am sure everything will heal up nicely soon.
