Trying to Beat My DNA - 2 weeks post-op

UHHHH!!! I am so aggravated today. I wish I had never had this surgery. Or at least that is how I am feeling today. I have had heartburn for the past 4-5 days with a small amount of gastric acid reflux. Today my throat feels like it has a cotton ball stuck in it and it feels extremely dry. No matter how much water I drink, it still feels dry.   Went to the doctor for my 2 week check up. I let her know about my symptoms and she told me to start all over on my diet. Yes, I'm back on liquids. I w

Trying to Beat My DNA - 8 days post-op

Well, I'm just over a week out and feel pretty good. My monthly friend showed her ugly little head a couple of days ago so I am all bloated and cramping, but other than that I am good.

My husband was supposed to be running the weed-eater, but he just can't do it like I want him to. He pays no attention to detail and just does a half butt job. Ughh. Guess I will have to hire someone to do that part since I can't do it myself.   I haven'

Trying to Beat My DNA - 3 days post-op

Well, my brain thought I was super-woman yesterday and since my body didn't put up an arguement at first, I went with it. We drove to the closest mall, which is like a hour away, so I could get some samples of protein powders and such at GNC. It didn't take long for my body to catch up with what was going on and retaliate. I think my body won that fight, because we came straight home and I had to go to bed.   Fast forward to today. Not feeling so well today. I have woken up every mornin
