Post op 2 weeks and feeling great
Nov 05, 2008
Well it has been 2 weeks since surgery so I thought I'd start blogging.
Surgery went well. I was in the hospital for 3 nights (1 extra night for blockage due to swelling...no big deal). I did suffer from a migraine/headache for about 9 days afterward. As soon as I was awake I was walking, I knew how important that was. My daughter and hubby have been a great help and having my 3 yr. old grandson around has been uplifting. My energy level has sky rocketed. My outlook on life is much brighter and I do not regret any decision for gastric bypass one ounce. Today I am going to start cleaning out old close from our closet. Hubby has lost 40 lbs. recently too and it's time to throw out the old clothes and look forward to wearing all the old skinny clothes I have been holding onto. Right know skinny clothes are a size 18...lol!
I am down 13 lbs. in i5 days post op. I am trying to be better about my water intake though. Getting all the water in is a lot harder than I thought it would be. (I just want to guzzle sooooo badly). I miss that thirst quenching guzzle. Also....anybody else HATE those Flinstone chewable vitamins. OMG....don't know how kids can chew them.
Anyway...all is good.
