Random thoughts and happenings

Apr 23, 2011

This last week has been really difficult for me emotionally having nothing to do with the surgery .  Had some conversations with my husband and naturally it brings up emotions and especially at holidays. That's another thing with Easter being tomorrow it sort of makes me feel very alone.  It is something that I have fought during holidays ever since my husband and I split up. He continues to tell me he wants to reconcile but does nothing to make the changes that need to happen.  I thank God that I am strong enough to say no at this time and explain that right now I need to take care of ME and only me.  I also did something with my hernia as I have been in pain for 3 days now.  I think I may have ripped the muscle a bit more which is why it is tender to the touch.  It also pulls and makes it very uncomfortable moving.  I ordered a binder but not sure that it is going to work . I hope so. I am still struggling like crazy with the liquids.  Today I was very tired and slept quite a bit so my liquid intake was maybe 24 oz if that. I am still having trouble getting past that 30 mark.  As long as I do not end up with kidney stones I am OK.  Weight has started to creep down again and I know that the slowness has to do with the liquids .   Tomorrow I will try and drink more .  If I do venture out it will help me to not want all the goodies .  I will probably be somewhat late so that everybody has pretty much eaten and I can go somewhat unnoticed without eating as I do not think she is going to have anything that I can have yet except for ham.  Their doing the polish Easter....kielbasa , sauerkraut, periogies, ham, salad and lasagna.  Not much to choose from for me so I will eat before I go.   Happy Easter!!
