Six Weeks Post Op Appointment
posted on 1/19/10 10:10 am
Well, it looks like the light at the end of the tunnel is finally starting to shine for me! I HOPE! I had my six-weeks post op appointment today and explained to my surgeon how I've been suffering from nausea really bad, and all the problems I've had getting any food down, the dry heaves problem, etc. So since we've ruled out dehydration at home with Shawn giving me fluids and the nausea continued. So we've now figured that I have not had a bowel movement in who knows when. Unfortunately, I was not regular before my surgery...so it's something that I've never paid attention to, because even though I wasn't regular (every day)...I was to me (every 3-4 days if not more). But...it's been a LOT longer than that. So, my lucky husband gets to give me a suppository and hopefully I will get moving soon!

She was happy with my weight loss...but unhappy with how it's happening, me not eating. I'm down to 225 pounds...she said 45 pounds, but I think she was rounding up because I'm only showing 43 pounds. But what's two pounds.  

I've also been graduated to soft foods, at my discretion. Trying what I think I can within reason. Getting my protein in is still a big factor...so she said I can try the protein bars over the shakes since I've had no luck with those. I also had a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, and it was heavenly! She said I can do the breads, but the wheat and the toast do better...so I thought why not a grilled cheese...it's toasted! 

So...all in all, the road may have been rocky...but it's getting smoother, I hope! And will continue to be a smooth ride from here on out!
