expectations
Jul 16, 2011
I have been home from the hospital 3 days now. I was on clear liquids and then of course npo the day before surgery. I have only dropped 2 lbs. Since all I can do is limited walking there is little exercise. I had a late surgery and did not get to my room until 9:30 p.m. So Wednesday was my first day out, and I had so much gas, there really wasnt any pain just the pressure from the gas. I can not get much down but then I guess I am not suppose to. I have found that my crushed meds go down better with thinned tomatoe soup. I guess i thought i would drop 20 lbs in the first week but that is not the case. I will join the support group on the 20th so I am hoping that will help plus I have a friend that will soon be doing this with me. That will probable be my strongest support. Good look to all of you.
