Okay, that's impressive. Can't say that I felt quite that good, but it has always been my thought that the sooner you adjust back to a normalNormal saline flush life, the better and faster the healing process. I'm happy for you! Thx for the input!
My left MastectomyMastectomy Mastectomy - series will be on the 12/19/06.
It made me feel much better reading you both were up and about quickly. That was one of my concerns.
Thank you for sharing.
I am sorry it took me so long to come back to the forum.
I am doing wonderful.
I enjoyed the Holidays with my family so very much. I was so happy I decided to do this before the Holiday.
I just got my staples out yesterday.
I am still a little tender/sore but nothing to cry about, just glad the staples are gone.
Now I have to work on the fact that my bathroom scale has been lying to me for a very long time now! When they weighed me at the hospital, it said I weighed more then my scale.
Bad scale! lol
So my husband and I are going to work on this problem together, "The scale lied to him too"; by eating better and walking each afternoon around the track up at the park.
Again, I am sorry it took me so long to come back.
Bless you all.
I am so glad you are feeling good. Wow, I did not know they still used staples.
You have to watch them scales. I walk in the winter and swim in the summer. This year I have been walking 3 1/2 months now and I have lost not one pound. Everyone says I am gaining weight from building muscle. Yeah right! Anyways I am doing it to be stronger, it clears my mind, it's a special time with my husband and well yeah I was hoping to drop a pound or two. Don't get on the scales at all. Before you start measure your body. That will keep you going. I have lost a few inches but it is discouraging not to lose the weight. Maybe that will be next. Best of luck.
Good to hear from you, had me a bit worried there!
Somebody sent me a poem, can't remember it other than the message it impies: Going to heaven gleefully grasping a margarita in one hand, and vanilla fudge in the other.
A rather overweight friend sent it to me, she called herself "fluffy".

My doc said do what you feel like doing. I'm not quite sure he had quite visualized riding a horse, though.
