carmalita28's Journal

WELL, AS YOU ALL SEE, I HAVE LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT, AND FINALLY REACHED MY 1 MONTH MARK! WOO HOO. PER ANDY'S REQUEST, PLEASE UPDATE YOUR JOURNAL!!!!!!! AS I ALWAYS HAVE LOTS TO SAY, I LIKE TALKING ON THE PHONE, EMAILS ETC., I AM JUST GOING TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE UPDATE TODAY. (i'm on my way out the door)!!!!!!!!!

SINCE MY SURGERY, I HAVE BEEN OK, JUST DEALING WITH MY NAUSEA, THAT I FINALLY FIGURED OUT WHY. I WAS EATING TOO MUCH AND TOO SOON. SO I BOUGHT SOME BABY SPOONS, AND IT HELPED TREMENDOUSLY! I ALSO FIGURED OUT THAT I HAVE SOME ADHESIONS BEHIND MY SCAR, AND THOUGHT IT WAS CONSTIPATION AT FIRST, THEN I WAS TOLD BECAUSE I ATE SOME RICE, (boy was it good), AND FOUND OUT I COULD NOT HAVE IT, BUT THAT WASN'T IT. IT WAS THE ADHESIONS IN WHICH CAUSED A LOT OF STABBING PAIN. 

AS I AM STILL HEALING, AND ONTO EATNG REGULAR FOODS NOW, I FIND THIS GBS SURGERY THING A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. I AM SO, LOVING THE NEW ME, AND I KNOW, I AM NOT DONE. I HAVEN'T BOUGHT ANY NEW CLOTHES YET, BUT HAVE THROWN OUT A NICE BATCH OF SOME. SOMEHOW, I AM NOT IN THE "SHOPPING" MOOD YET, AND I THINK IT BECAUSE I AM JUST NOT READY YET, BUT I CAN USE SOME NEW PANTS, HEHEHE!

I DO WANT TO GIVE A HUGE SHOUT OUT TO MY HUBBY WHO HAS BEEN THERE THROUGHT THE THICK AND THE THIN OF IT ALL. I PRAISE HIM ON A DAILY BASIS, I SWEAR IF HE WASN'T THERE, I WOULD BE A SOFTIE, BECAUSE I HAVE CRIED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS TO WHERE I JUST FEEL BAD. HE IS MY "ROCK"!!!!

I ALSO WANT TO GIVE SPECIAL SHOUT OUTS TO ALL MY DS FRIENDS ON HERE, AND THE POSTS. I DON'T THINK I WOULD BE ME IF I HAVE NEVER CAME TO THIS SITE. THE PEOPLE ARE LIKE FAMILY TO ME. I COME HERE MORE THAN ONCE A DAY TO CHECK IN, CHECK THE POST, READ MAIL, GET ADVICE ETC. AND I WILL NEVER SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THIS SITE. MATTER OF FACT, I TOLD MY GBS OFFICE CREW TO PUT THIS SITE ON ALL THERE FLYERS, BOOKS, ETC. JUST AWESOME.

I KNOW THERE ARE MANY OF YOU WHO MIGHT READ THIS OR MAY SKIP IT TILL ANOTHER DAY OR WHATEVER, BUT IF YOU GET THE CHANCE O READ THIS, JUST KNOW THAT CARMALITA, IS A VERY HAPPY AND LUCKY WOMAN. I ALSO, WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU ALL EMAIL ME ON MY PERSONAL EMAIL AND ALWAYS PUT "DS FRIEND", SOMEWHERE ON THE EMAIL, SO I CAN KNOW MY "SPECIAL" FRIEND HAS EMAILED ME, AND AM SURE, WILL BRING A SMILE TO MY FACE. IT'S CALLED, "LOVE"!!!!!
