Home and well

Jan 13, 2010

My surgery as you know was Jan 4th I went in weighing 293 from 301 and came out weighing about what I did when i went in and and the doctor said it was all of the iv fluids that they were giving me.  The first week was a challenge and not to mention my period started so I was not to happen and in pain, I have been trying to get as much fluid as I can in and I'm not meeting goal but I think i am ok.  This is my second week and after seeing my surgeon on Monday getting that damn tube out of me I feel a lot better other than the left side of me hurting from the incision site.  I can walk and do simple things but I do not have a lot of energy I have only lost 12 pounds which is okay i guess, can't say i am to happy about that.  I did give up the pain meds earlier because I would have night mares and wasn't sleeping very well.  I couldn't make it to the computer because I have a very uncomfortable computer chair, but I made it today and I will make an attempt to keep you posted.  I am trying to get my protein and fluid in I have noticed that the unflavored unjury tastes like throw up and not to mention the nasty road side lemonade I purchased yuk  I love lemonade so I thought i would like it, i was totally wrong.   Well I am going to rest for now I will blog again tomorrow
