 I am at week 2 and one day.  I am tired. I mean physically tired yet I can't sleep at night because I can't find a comfortable position.  I have read to expect fatigue during week 3 and 4 then you will have energy.  I just thought how tired can you be?
Still on liquids so anticipating more energy once I move to soft foods.

 OK it is day four post surgery and I am wondering what was I thinking?  I mean I actually signed up for this?!  I know this too shall pass but I am so sore and tired.  My arms are black and blue from blood draws and ivs.  My stomach is the size of a 6 month pregnancy and my back is killing me like the same pregnancy!  I need to keep reminding myself of the end goal.

One day at a time....

 Tomorrow is the big day.  I had my last solid meal at lunch.  Salad with grilled chicken and a protein bar.  I can only have a liquid dinner and nothing by mouth after midnight.  I have to be at he hospital bright and early.  6:30am to be exact.  My surgery is scheduled at 9am.  I am putting off packing my bag.  Maybe because I don't want to keep thinking about it.  If I don't think  about it then I can't get too nervous. ;)
