I had (plastic) surgery this past summer - frankly my children ruined my stomach (they were 12lbs each) so no matter how much weight I lost I always had a terrible belly... so I had a tuck done and let me tell you... it may have been day surgery but I went home with drains in - and was flat on my back for almost 2 weeks (trying to sit up from laying was a task and a half) and basically became all knowing in all things Gene Simmons... (never once watched the show before my surgery!!) but since it was me my couch and my dog for about two weeks... It was Gene or utter boredom - SO I heartily concur... there is only so much day time TV one can survive without becoming a total lunatic. I figure my head and neck will be a mess but if my lower limbs are working okay a walk will do me good!
Have a great day!
