home and sleeved - day 4

I got home from the hospital yesterday.  I think I am doing okay - seems like it is impossible to get in all my fluids but I am trying.  Day 2 was terrible and it hurt so bad to even take a sip of water.  Better today and I don't really even need any pain meds.   I am on clears for a week and the full liquid for a week.  Hope to go for a little walk today.

Walk and sip is right!

Hang loose. You'll be fine.

And oh by the way--YOU'RE ON THE LOSERS' BENCH!

 I'm post op day 4 as well.  I agree day 2 was the worst!  I too struggle with my fluids. I literally set the alarm on my phone for every 10-15 minutes and then sip 1 ounce. It's an all day challenge. I still haven't hit 64 ounces but am coming close. 
Hang in there!  Every day will be better than the day before!
