After surgery

Jan 31, 2010

I had surgery on the 26th.. most of my pain gone so on tylenol only for the last two days.. .but pain near my liver is driving me nuts.. They said no straw to eliminate drinking air.. but all I have done since surgery is get bubbles of air in my stomache... first few days I felt like hit by a mac truck.. thank God that went away.. I hate pain medicine and how it makes me feel.

I am not on protein suppliments but pureed protein right now.. I am not yet getting it all in but more each day and more water each day too. I hope to add milk on monday so that will allow me to increase my protien a  lot..

Walking is hard,.. I started at 375 on 5'8" body..and with my asthma I haven't walked much in months. But I am up to 45 minutes at a slow stroll. IT is a start..

I hope all of you are doing well...

Surprised on my home scale this morning at 361. About 5 lbs less than preop weight... I think..
