MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Wow! I am almost two months into my surgery and wow, what a difference it has already made in my life. I am breathing easier, moving easier, laughing more, and feeling better. My blood pressure is normal and I'm off medication! I have been on it for years!

I have lost 51 pounds so far. . .YEAP! 51 POUNDS!!

The kids have noticed, the husband has, the immediate family has too. I am walking 2 miles a day, 5 days a week with my mom. We walk the mall (2 laps). I'm looking forward to the changes that are coming, but like I said I already have experienced several.

Sliding into the booths at restaurants, instead of cringing and praying the table isn't screwed to the floor and I can scoot it to give myself more room. . .WELL... I can slide into those booths already!!!!! YIPPPPPPEEEEEEE!!!

Ohhh and I love hot baths, now I fit in my tub with no problems and when I get up I am not afraid I am going to fall. I walk out of the tub, instead of looking for a way to balance myself like I did before.

I will admit I crave Mt. Dew, and I long for bread. lol. . .No bread till October 24, 2007 and Mt. Dew, not until 3 mths, or 6 mths, depending on how my body responds to carbonated beverages. I won't lie. . . I really want that Mt. Dew. :D

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and I'm going to get my rear back in gear and get this blog back up and running. . .:D
