Has it been a week already?

Dec 08, 2013

It has been a whirlwind week.  Surgery went well Monday and I got to come home Tuesday night.  I think the worst part was waiting to have liquids after surgery until the next day when they did a GI.  I was so thirsty.  When I was being discharged, one incision started leaking.  The nurse bandaged me up and that was that.  I have been nursing that leak since.  It is clear so that is good that there is no infection. The best thing about being home was taking a shower.  I was more sore in my neck and shoulders than in my stomach.  I think they beat me up pretty good.  

I am now doing regular liquids, cream soups and yogurt.  I love the Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt.  It is 80 Cals and 12 proteins(twice as much as regular yogurt).  It is hard when the family cooks because it smeils so good but I am doing great.  I am down 15 pounds today. 

For the struggles, I wouldn't change my decision to do this so I guess my mind is getting in the right place.  Life is good.
