2 weeks postop

Jul 27, 2010

 Well, I made it to my first miletsone today. After 14 days of full liquids plus the 3 days pre-op, today I got to sample some puree food.  Amazing how good a little cottage cheese or puree chicken can taste.  I was really getting sick of the same vanilla, chocolate or chicken soup flavored protein supplements. Over all the last two weeks have gone well. Every day got a little better as far as pain, reaching my protein and liquid goals and I have been walking every day since I got home. It's just a half mile around the block but my speed increased every day. Today I headed back to the gym to get out of the heat and walked a faster mile on the treadmill. I have been experiencing a little heartburn/acid reflux so I am gonna try some pepcid today. So every day is a new adventure, learning how to sip, sip and now chew very slowly. Hope to get my stamina and energy back soon as I keep at my exercise goals.
