Everyday it is getting easier.  I am not going to lie it is a lot of work and it has been uncomfortable.  I stayed in the hospital 2 days. I did vomit that night after surgery, of course after getting up and walking.    I had to have some IV Magnesium day2.  I was so glad I got to stay another day,I slept the whole day.  My body needed it. I went back to work a bit early, 6 days after surgery.  I did not plan time off very well.  But like I said everyday is getting easier and I have been sticking to the plan.  I am planning for this Tuesday when I can go to Phase 2.  Pureed/Mushy foods, can't wait!!  4 weeks of  liquids is getting rough!   

I'm very nervous, I have never had surgery before!! I'm a nurse so I keep thinking of all of the possible things that can happen.

  Also, wondering how today and tomorrow are going to go with no protein and no tomato  juice.  Strictly clear liquids, oh boy!!!! 

So proud of myself for not cheating at all the last 2 weeks and walking 10 miles this week.  This is my NEW start.......

One week from today  is my surgery!!  This is a big life changing event for me, plus I have never had any surgery before.
