  1. 16 days out....still very tired and weak...all normal I am told....BUT, had a scare today..I am involved in doggie rescue, and a friend needed help with a few new puppies at the vet today...cool, I can do that and never able to help due to work...so I told her I would meet her and went to get my shower...bent a bit to wash myself and, I had the worst belly cramp ever... I think it's due to my hernia and would have been petrified if it weren't for that I had this pain a few times BEFORE surgery.. I was so sickkkk, I quickly ringed off and had to lay down....so sick....
    I am feeling better now, tomorrow is day 17 and I can have eggs, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes...was told that when I get to this point, I should be better....suppose to go back to work on Monday ...gotta be feeling much better than today...
  2. 2 weeks out...good news, bad news.....feel better, but so very tired...activity wears me out, but it is normal, according to the nurse...my body is reacting to major surgery and very low calorie intake. Plus I was extremely low on Vit D and B12.... Good news , how wonderful I will feel when we get it together..... Can't wait....
  3. Today is post-op day 5... Not sure what to say... Day 1 in hospital was pretty painful with the belly.. The gas is one thing, not enjoyable at all, but they must have been having a party in there....the nurses tried putting on a binder when I would get up and I was really hurting, and I don't feel that I am a baby... Dr came in and I told him how I felt and he said tomorrow will be much better...RIGHT....easy for him to say... The next day came and it was better.......but one STRONG bit of advise...if you don't have to do the 2 week pre-diet...DON'T pig out , cause I am not sure if I am hungry or not...mentally I am, physically I really can't tell... I am following instructions, but still want to get a bite of something....now the issue I am having presently is my stomach feels so bloated, not sure if that is still gas.... Just continuing with the plan....good night sleevers

First Dr appt after surgery

by funnyfatlady on 04-11-2013 at 06:26 PM
16 lbs down!,,,,,,,, so excited....can't wait to get off soups and other full liquid......but the PA explained more WHY it is so important...pictures and all...makes better sense than saying you can't....but again all you pre-opers.....if you don't need to do the pre - diet ( I did not have to).... Don't go hog wild with food prior to surgery cause the cravings are strong,...just saying

Tired today

by funnyfatlady on 04-09-2013 at 08:39 AM
I am extremely tired today...took an extra protein shake. And made sure to get my vit B12...maybe a nap will help...waiting for all this energy to happen..post op appt Thursday a d excited to get on the scale...don't say that very often...and to check my vitamin levels... Got to admit I am sitting around semi depressed that 1) when I am feeling this way...I would go eat something bad that tastes good and 2) feeling so extremely exhausted, which makes me more depressed....

Don't sound
