One Week Out...
Apr 30, 2010
Finally... I got some sleep. I feel great, but get tired easily. I am looking forward to my doctor appointment next week to see any progress with my weight. I can't really tell... I bought a scale, but since I bought it post-op... I have no way of knowing if I gained weight in the hospital... or know how the scale is different from my doc's scale... so I will just have to wait and see. I usually use the scale at work, but I want to know now!My family has been here taking care of me... but they have all been eating food I love! I can't believe they are still cooking bacon in my house! (Sigh)... I am not hungry... and I really don't want to eat it...but last week when they brought in fried fish I wanted to take it all and dump it on their heads!
I am so sick of Ensure ... I am never drinking it again as soon as I can eat something else. I have tried the Unjury protein and it is okay... I like the taste of the chicken soup favor, but it won't mix well over 130 degrees... so it is not hot enough... I am going to try other flavors this week and see what else I like. ( I don't like the chocolate... but that may be a leftover from the Optifast days!)
I am trying to move every day... I haven't felt like walking more than around the yard... or going with my family to the store or something... but I am trying to rest... and heal... I can get back to full exercise one month out.... until then I am going to enjoy my time off... my family... and my healing time.
I am so grateful for this opportunity. I never had a second thought... and I would do it again if I had too... Just in case you were wondering!
