Day After

Okay so today I am SOOOO soar. Yesterday I was too, but this time any which way I move it hurts like crazy. So I'm really hoping that this soreness doesn't get worse, only gets better from here.

 

I haven't had the gas pains in the shoulder yet & hopefully I won't, but I've also been taking the Gas-X too.

 

My mom is here with me and she keeps reminding me that I did it for a reason, so just get through the soar part & I'll be fine. Also that I need to remember that I have something foreign in me so I'm going to have to get used to that as well.

 

But they did tell me that the more I walk the less stiff & soar I will be. I'm suppose to go back to work on Saturday, so I guess today were gonna do more walking so that I can get ready for work. Also gonna go find a food processor because my blender does okay, but the food processor will thin out the food more. But I was able to drink water, apple juice, jello, & some broth yesterday with no feelings of nausea or vomiting. :eek:

    You are doing great! Congratulations on making a huge step in your life! Keep reminding yourself the soreness goes away very quickly and the healthy habits and opportunity you have are forever!

    It gets better, fast! Rest, enjoy some time off and take care of you.

    @emetyb01 Thank you! I've been taking the pain meds, but I kind of think they aren't really working. I seem to be more soar when I'm just getting up from laying down & any movements that cause even the littlest form of stretching. I'm glad you say 7 days out & your feeling normal. I will be counting down for that day. LOLOL.
