10 days out - how am I doing?

Hi- I'm pretty close post op days (16 days). 

I also don't have much of an appetite.  It's more like-well I better "eat" something.  Mostly protein shakes (2 per day) and some broth.  And the occasional greek yogurt if it sounds ok. I find myself having serious cravings for a salad though.  I know my body is missing the fruits and veggies.   

Two days ago my little boy was asking to go to the zoo, and I thought it'd be a good way to get more walking in (the zoo here is pretty small).  I was totally exhausted after the zoo and had to nap with my kiddo.  Finding myself really worn out by the end of the day.   

Had my 2 week follow up appointment yesterday and told the doc about being so tired all of the time with not a whole lot of exertion and she put it into perspective for me.  She said when you look at your belly it looks like no big deal....only tiny little incisions that I can hardly see now-but what we went through was a "major" abdominal surgery.  She said cut yourself some slack and don't over do it.  It's totally normal to feel pretty sluggish for a while.  That made me feel a lot better. 

Good luck with everything and I hope you feel better soon.
