2 weeks post op check up

Mar 13, 2014

I weighed in at 242.9.  What a nice number! When I go back to work, I don't know if I'll have any clothes that fit! Pity, as I just bought a bunch of 3 x scrubs !!! LOL - These past couple of days have been hard.  More muscle pain, i must be moving around more at nite that before - I'm not on the narcs any longer.  I find i still have no energy during the day, very discouraging.  I asked the doc about returning to work before 4/7 - the date he listed on my disability papers, he said i'm not ready to return before then.  He knows best at this point. 

My biggest disappointment right now - I miss my sewing machine.  

With the latest winter storm here in the N.E. its not possible to get out & walk around outside w/ all of the ice.  My hubby has my car, and I'm not really comfy yet driving (maybe i'm just being wimpy).

Even with the decrease to 2 protein shakes per day and the addition of food (yogurt, refried beans, cottage cheese), I still don't have an increase in energy.  I've been taking my vitamins since the day I came home from the hospital.  I wish i had more energy!

Trying to keep a positive outlook, as I know the scale will only continue to go down at this point & the weather can only continue to warm up (I Hope).
