4 days post-op

Feb 27, 2010

Things have been going really well!  I had some gas and constipation issues and yesterday I took some milk of magnesia and that really helped with the constipation issue rather quickly.  But since then my  gas has gotten a bit worse, my stomach has been grumbling and noisy.  I had one more BM this morning, so I am not sure if I should take another dose of MofM or not.  I am walking, walking, walking and sip, sip, sipping.  Getting in atleast 80 oz of clear liquid a day and most of that being water.  I am still on a clear liquid diet until March 23.  Which I am really glad about at this point, I don't think I could get down mushies yet.  I have not been hungry at all, not even head hunger.  I went to a restraunt today and ordered a really brothy soup so I could enjoy that while my friends and hubby at their lunchs.  so far I am not having any issues with watching others eat their food.  I am focusing more on the company that I have and I have really felt freed from food the last few days.  I know I am infor an emotional roller coaster soon, but I am being as positive as I can be, I think that is a huge part of this journey.  I am going to succeed!!!  Well good night all.
