One week and one day
Jun 15, 2011
I made it through the first week! Yesterday was a blah kind of day for me. I think it was mostly the whole period, crampy thing. Yesterday I had a lot of gas in my pouch. I'm not sure what caused it maybe the propel I was drinking. I was told to dilute propel with half water and I didn't. I kept feeling like I had to burp but not much would come up. I ended up taking a gas-x dissolve on your tongue strip and that seemed to help.This morning I woke up and I had an upset stomach and diarrhea. But once I got it out I felt a lot better. I was very excited when I stepped on the scale and it said 318.8! I can not wait for Friday. I get to start full liquids. I am looking forward to tomato soup. Yumm. I am just getting so bored of drinking the same thing over and over. That is probably my only complaint. Earlier this evening my stomach was feeling growly. I wasn't sure if it was the acid is in my stomach acting up or if it was hunger pains. I sure hope it wasn't hunger pains. I ended up eating a few popiscles so I could trick my brain into thinking I was eating. It seemed to work and it stopped being growly. But I also took my PPI.
My family ordered pizza tonight for dinner. It smelled so good and my dad brought a plate into the living room where I was sitting and set it on the coffee table next to me and it looked so good. That was hard.
But I made it through it! I'm still at my parents house re-couping. I am getting homesick and wanting to go back home. But we are in the middle of a bathroom remodel project that started before my surgery was scheduled/set. It is almost done and I hope to be back at home sometime before the weekend is over.
