Day 5 Post-Op: Sugar Hill Gang and Home Depot

Jul 01, 2014

I still can't sleep right. I mean I lay back, close my eyes but my body is restless. The gas bubbles, they don't sleep! So I'm sorta half way tired all the time, still trying to get in my protein; getting better. Today I ventured out to home depot with grams and bought her tree and walked around the store where it was nice and cool (it's super hot in New Orleans right now).  

I just listened to some Sugar Hill Gang, 8th wonder and moved around a little ; don't want to hurt anything, so I take it easy for now. I feel so much closer to normal! I really can't wait to get back into the rhythm of things!

The first few days were horrible, the puking and naseau, but that all went away like most said; clockwork. I can only take in about 5 ozs of liquid in about 30-45 minutes or I'll get that uncomfy wave of gas. So far, i have no regrets and super looking forward to getting my grub on the right way. I am working on the boredom thing, the eat when bored, and now that I know that's my trigger I just start dong something else. I like having a schedule, plan on what to eat so i have been researching low-carb pureed foods and for someone who hates cooking, I am so looking forward to it. 

Hope you all are doing well and thank you so much for all your comments and support!

To date, I have lost 23lbs, 16 pre-op and 7 post.
