7 days after surgery

Jul 19, 2010

Well, today is my week anniversary. I did not end up going back to work because I am so freaking bloated and I still have this stupid drain in. I am drinking my shakes fine, 2 a day, my broth, my milk, etc.  I am not drinking all 8 glasses of water because I feel so full all the time and with the drain under my diaphram it gives you sharp pains.  (the kind you get when you try to exercise when ur out of shape, but, imagine that all the time).  But, I am taking all my vitamins and my dissolvable Nexium and all that that I am supposed to do.  I feel good and I weighed myself yesterday and even with the bloating/swelling/drain, I was already at 291.  Yahoo.  So, that already puts me down from 311 before surgery to 291.  Not too shabby.  Other than just the normal aches and pains of this drain, I think everything will be fine.  Thanks everyone for checking up and offering encouraging words.  I am ready to get this started!!!!!!
