    Good you are eating a little more. I'm down a total of 24lbs. My husband has been very supportive. He works out of town n only comes home on the weekends and he says every time he comes home I'm smaller. I'm loving it. I'm pretty much back on liquids just because I dnt like the way purees look but I'm doing well. My mom asked how you were.
  3. Good news, I ate about a quarter cup of Mac and cheese with protein powder and it went down and didn't hurt. YAY!
    Down about 18 since pre-op. How bout you? What's hubby thinkin about your weight loss?

    Today I had an egg and then 1/2 cup beef tips with low fat gravy but I only ate a few bites of both. I tried making my own protein shakes and been doing well with them. U losing pretty well?

    Hey there. I was just checking to see how things were going for you. When are you starting your puree's?
  7. I feel like my stomach is swolen and gassy! Lost a few... not 14! What are you eating? I can only do like yogurt, protein shakes, had some tuna with mayo, a little cottage cheese. NOT MUCH!!!!
    Let me know how your mom gets the stitches out.
    We'll loose the weight eventually. I think our stomachs are all outta wack right now

    Thinking of you today! I hope everything goes well! I'll be looking for your post-op update. Good luck, fellow Sunflower State gal!

    Hi sunnyjill! I thought the level of care was awesome. Although I had no problems my surgery mate did. The nurses were very caring and Dr. Q. made sure to stop by on his day off and even came to the hotel when the other girl said she didn’t feel good. As long as you make your concerns known I’m sure you will be fine. My mate is a diabetic and the surgery did not agree with her...raising her insulin and making her sick to her stomach. The doctor is not there at all times but he will come if the nurses page him. In order to help u with the nurses I would recommend downloading a translation app so what you type is translated into Spanish. The nurses have limited English but Dr. Q has excellent English and if you explain your concerns he'll be sure to take care of u. See u on the other side!

So many questions

by sunnyjill on 05-02-2013 at 08:51 PM
Today is day 8 for me. I'm already worried about failure. So far this has been very easy. I have not been nauseated, have not had hiccups, went back to work on day 5 and felt great, everything so easy. (Not that I'm complaining)
I can drink large amounts of water.... 64 oz or more.
I eat basically only Greek yogurt, protein shakes,and broth.
Is this normal? Should I be able to drink so much? Am I going to stretch out my sleeve with so much liquid? I also haven't yet found my

Tomorrow is 6 days out... spinal migranes

by sunnyjill on 04-29-2013 at 08:48 PM
How should my incisions be looking? Should I leave the bandages off for a while and let them "breathe"? I don't think they're infected or anything. I've been cleaning with peroxide.... any info would be great!

Has anyone have to deal with spinal headaches as a result of a goofed epidural? That's what I've been dealing with right now. Spend the whole day in the OR receiving fluids and hydrocone. I'm all afraid of other things maybe going wrong. Infection, etc.

Day 1 is almost over

by sunnyjill on 04-25-2013 at 10:31 PM
Today really hasn't been too bad. Had a shower this morning, did lots of walking because I'm bored, ate 3 really yummy popsicles, and a glass of ice.
Knock-on-wood, I haven't been nauseated or had any bad pain. The pain has been dull and manageable. I do have a full headache.
So far the experience has been very good.
The one thing I'm not looking forward to is flying 5 hours then driving 2 hours to get home. I'll have my big girl panties on so I'll be A-OK!

Going back to work 5 day after school

by sunnyjill on 04-13-2013 at 12:54 PM
My job doesn't require heavy lifting, or anything physical. I sit a lot, and walk quite a bit at work. Should I be okay?
