Almost 2 months !

Jun 12, 2009

 I will be 2 months Post OP next weekend. I hope the Dr removes my feeding tube at my next visit.
The past week has been rough. I started walking every night (Dr wants me to walk atleast 3 hours a week) and I have had to stop after 15-20 min because of bad cramps in my tummy. I had to stop lifting weights as well cuz of pain.
When I was weighed at my last vist I had GAINED 8 pounds! I am the only person in the world who can be on a feeding machine 12 hours (3 cans a day) and gain weight... maybe it was those 10 popsicles a day!
 They lowered my feedings to two cans and added the exercise. Other than the increase in pain the walking has been ok. He also asked me to start eating foods with cottage cheese-like texture. It was uncomfortable at first but now it is easier. It just takes me over an hour to eat dinner.
 I see Dr next week. I hope to see some progress.
Hugs to all my OH friends- I hope you all are doing well.
