Thursday~ 3 days post op

May 15, 2013

I had surgery on Monday morning~ My weight was 292.  I came home on Tuesday afternoon.  My Best Friend is here from North Carolina taking care of me.  I feel very good.  I am sore from the 6 incisions they made in my tummy for the laparoscopic surgery, a little nausea, but other than that I am recovering nicely.  I've gone on a couple car rides and very short walks.  Trying to get the "gas" to expell itself out of my abdomen.  That is the most uncomfortable part, the gas that was used to blow up my abdomen for the surgery kind of centered in my mid to upper back, shoulder, and base of my neck.  That was more uncomfortable for me than anything, but it is moving out...sloooooowww but sure!

This week I am trying to make sure I stay hydrated.  Next week I will focus more on the protein.  One day at a time and it'll slowly fall into place.  At least I hope so before I go back to work!
