6wks post op

Jan 07, 2012

So, last nite I sat in the ER for about 8hrs to get fluids and potassium.  Its no ones fault but mine... When they say drink plenty of fluids, they mean it.  Not that I haven't tried... I'm just constantly sporting an upset stomach.  Seems all meats are out for me at this stage in the game and eggs, pasta, rice... Guess I'll live on beans for a while. Or take it back to yogurt, soup and things of such. Though frustrating and a bit emotionally draining, I have no regrets. I am down 40lbs from my highest weight, down 32 since my first surgeons appt and in 6wks have lost a combined total of 24.75 inches. My pants were a 28, now 24.  My shirts 30/4x are now 18/20-2x. So it seems to be a sweet suffering thus far.
