Well Dot, it sounds as though things are going well for you at home and that you are taking things SLOWLY! That is the most important thing to do. I must say that I was surprised and impressed at your being released after 48 hours, but hey, look at you now! I am SO PROUD of your progress. Congratulations and Best Wishes on your recovery. Remember to call if you need anything at all. Just walk and continue to drink as much as possible. It helps us achieve our goals faster! BTW, I hope that you threw that book away from the dietician -- I mentioned it to Debby, and she's going to talk to you about it, if she hasn't already! Keep up the good work, kiddo! You're doing GREAT! ~~HUGS~~ from The Angel
