Wow, it is amazing how much difference a couple of days makes. I feel great today. No pain today at all. Port site is just a little uncomfortable, but only notice it occasionally.

 

I felt so good that I even mowed the lawn today. 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't been a very good girl today. I'm supposed to be on full liquids still, but today I broke down and made me some egg whites. OMG I have never loved chewing something so much in my life. And believe me I chewed those egg whites up like a human food processor. lol. I was scared to get something stuck and then I would have to explain that to my doctor. But, I did not get stuck. Actually did really well. I am getting my fluid in really well today. It is much easier to swallow today so my swelling must be a lot less.

 

Darn scale is broke. It is only 2 months old. Must be God's way of keeping me off the thing. Guess I am going to have to buy a new one. Because God only knows that I can't go very much longer without knowing.

 

As far as my mood. Oh goodness, I am irritable. No one can do anything to suit me. The smallest thing is setting me off. My poor family. I of course think it is just the fact that I am not used to being around all the kids for this long of a period and they are driving me nuts. Who knows, it may be a combination of the two. Lord help us. I'll never make it another 4 weeks if they keep acting like this. lol.

Congratulations Bander! Be careful with the foods as you're most likely to cause a complication during this healing period (I couldn't make it three weeks either and cheated the last few days with shakes...but I had clear diet, foods-even mushies, are the problem). Heal well and best wishes! -BG

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
    • I'm literally almost crying reading this. Mostly because I'mon this pre-op diet and these last two days have been difficult... but also because I needed this! Thank you! Congrats!
