one week post-op

Nov 10, 2008

       I can't believe it's already been a week since my surgery. I didn't even need pain meds when I came home. I'm starting to feel "normal" again.  Although I do  get tired pretty fast. Just taking a shower is an effort.

 I've lost 5 pounds this week. A total of 30 since 9/1/8. I can see a big difference in my face,arms, legs and my back, it's so weird. I catch myself looking into the mirror when I walk by. Is that really me??

    I'm not doing all that great with getting my liquids in. But,I'm working on it and  I am getting in broth and cream of wheat.
It's funny how your stomach reacts to food when it hits.

  This is all a work in progress. I am determined to follow the guide lines that have been given to me to be successful.

 I look forward to the coming weeks.  I am excited about the big changes that are happening to me.


I got a date...

I had my computer test today, and while I was there, they asked if I could change my appointment with the psychologist from 7/11/08 to 6/20/08..I quickly said yes. So after my sleep study on thursday night 6/19, and my upper Gi at 9:15 on the 20th, I'll meet with the psychologist. I love crossing things off of my to do list.
