Re: Roll Call~~Monday 6/9

Good Morning fellow stacers! I'm back again after having had a small benign brain tumor removed one week ago today!!!! (this time last week my brain was open in the OR!) I'm feeling so happy and thankful for every little thing and am grateful to be home and doing so well! I'm being totally spoiled by family and friends. Currently, laying in bed, propped up with pillows, pretty scarf on my head, and typing here. My mil is staying with me today to keep an eye on me... very sweet. But I'm really fine, my only restrictions are that I can't lift more than 5 lbs, bend over, or walk for more than 5 minutes at a time (3 times a day only for 3 weeks!) other than that I'm good. I can walk, talk, type, remember every little detail and email password. I'm just thanking God for all his goodness to me and my blessed experience at UCSF where they did the surgery. I had the best doctors, nurses, anesthesiologist, mri people, etc.... I am incredibly thankful it's over, and incredibly thankful to now be able to start thinking... 'okay, watch those carbs girlfriend!'

I'm glad to be back here and read all your posts and that you are all still around and things are getting back to normal for me again. I know I haven't talked a lot about this in the morning checkin's because I didn't want to freak everyone out... and this isn't a forum for brain tumor support, still you all have been a help to me. Focusing on taking care of ourselves etc... is so important! I'm so glad that I lost that 50 lbs BEFORE I had a major operation! Imagine how much healthier I am because of it and all the exersize I did... walking 3-5 miles a day up until the day of surgery. All of that also contributed to a good outcome... Thanks guys,
love you all!!!!

Wow, hopejoy, you are certainly a strong,healthy woman! I am happy to see you are doing fine after such an important surgery.

Ladies, I am thrilled after finishing my first 2 weeks with induction. I have lost
7.48lbs(3.4 kgs) and some inches off my sexy body LOL. Seriously, I am seeing results...GOOD results and I am motivated for that. I am certainly going for 1 induction month at least. I am sooo close to reach my first minigoal...This is SO wonderful!

Fat....you will be off my body soon!
