3 Days Out
Nov 22, 2009
3 Days out and I'm feeling good! I know it's early in my recovery but I am starting to wonder what I was so worried about before surgery!I took a shower yesterday, I removed the outer bandages from my incisions (5) and left the steri strips in place. The wounds were sensitive but healing nicely. I also drank a small can of spicy V8 juice, a protein shake, a crystal light popsicle, a 6 oz yogurt and sipped approx 60 ounces of water throughout the day. I had no nausea or vomiting. I was not hungry at all and my blood sugars were so good that I didn't need any insulin the entire day!
The only complaint I would have is feeling a bit bloated and gassssssy! But that is lessening with each day. I can feel the restriction of the band when I burp and I'm glad because it reminds me that it's there and I know it's working!
Today I am already enjoying a wonderful cup of coffee and am looking forward to a walk around my property if the weather permits.
God is good, all the time!
