Finally out of the hospital

Jun 13, 2013

Hi OH friends I'm finally out of the hospital as of 6/10/13. I was sooo worried about having a second surgery or having further complications. My doctor had me on bedrest with no food or drinks only the IV and some ice chips. I was starting to go insane when I was woke which only was for about 5 hours a day in which I showered watched Tv. My family has all of these videos of me sleeping and being in my hospital room however, I don't remember any of it I was so out of it. Right now I'm home I still don't have any strength or energy but, I get up walk for 5-10 minutes and go back to sleep. My progress is behind because of my complication however I'm on track with weight loss I guess. I've been meaning to get online but, I feel drained and exhausted just typing this. I went to my doctors office today so I guess I will be out of work a little longer then expected. My stomach is bloated I'm in constant pain however, I am able to drink he wants me on clears for another week then purees for 30 days. I have my next f/u appt on 7/13/13 but as of today I weigh 376 and at time of surgery I was 397.8 and when I started Optifast I was 410. So the weight is starting to come off.                    I'm not as excited as I thought I would be because of this issue with my bowels but, deep inside I am and I know I made the right decision
