One week post-op

Jul 24, 2009

WOW what a difference a week makes, even a day.  The last two days I've felt rather funky, not bad, just not quite right.  Had and excellant night's sleep, only got up once to pee ~~~ YEAH!   I've been more active today and really feel like going out.   I'm still having some bleeding problems from the incision where drain tube was, which is still depressing but it IS getting better.   I'm just afraid if I go out it will leak thru and the blood will show.  But still I feel great!
I was  280 at the hospital and sadly 284 when I came home - alot of fluid buildup, my feet were so swollen couldn't get shoes on, wore slippers home.
Well, today I weighted myself and and it was 272!!!!!!!!!!!!  I could cry its so wonderful.  Can't imagine what will be when I can finally go out and do my walking!
I am diffently very proud of myself.
