I am now on day 8. Felling better and better each day. Showers are easier, bending is ok. Yesterday, my stomach was a little swollen, had trouble sitting straight in a chair. But I am doing ok today. I think it was because I scrubbed my 2 bathrooms and was bending alot. So I think that bothered my stomach. The hunger is getting better. No more gurgling in my belly. Up to 4 protien drinks, 5 oz. of water, 1 sugar free jello, 1 mug of broth per day. That seems to be satisfying me. Monday is my first post-op appt. with Dr. Robinson. Can't wait to see how I am doing officially. Maybe I can start mushies on monday, if not I am scheduled to start on Wednesday. I don't think 2 days would matter much. My incisions are healing. The little pokes hurt more than the big incisions. Wonder why? Well, feeling great. Down about 17 lbs, the last time I weighed myself (from the start of pre-op and post-op).:clap2:
