Two Weeks Down

Nov 20, 2010

I am almost two weeks post surgery and I am amazed at how much I have progressed since being released from the hospital.  I have little pain, and only some soreness.   I am walking like crazy and I have even incorporated light weights to keep myself toned.  My energy levels are great and my diet has been so much easier to accept than I thought it would be.  Last Sunday was the first time I felt hungry, but it did not last longer.  It was near time for my protein shake and once I had the shake the hunger disappeared. 

The compliments I have received from family and friends are so encouraging.  Having a supportive network has been absolutely wonderful. 

The only issue I am having is my stomach is still very swollen and bruised but it is working itself out.  My mom suggest I wear a girdle to keep the tummy tight so I am going to try it.  Other than that, no complaints.  Helpful hint:  read, read, read, so you will really understand the ins/outs of your journey. 

Stay Strong!
