Day 3 Post Op

Day 3 and feeling much better. Incision is feeling a lot better. I took a pain pill last night but probably didn't really need it.

Last night was a bit hard. Kept wanting to eat something that crunched in my mouth. I kept hearing the pretzel sticks calling my name from the kitchen! I finally had a whole Odwalla protein drink (12 oz.) and felt better. Probably more than I should have had, but it was that or the pretzels!

Dropped another 2 pounds! Very exciting and motivating! I keep picturing the fat "melting" off of me! Great feeling!

Found a lot of recipes for protein shakes on one of the forums. I'm going to try a couple of the more liquid ones and save the mushie ones for after Tuesday. Going to a wedding this weekend and the nurse said I could have a couple spoonfuls of mashed potatoes! Sounds like filet mignon, at this point!

Hanging in and hanging on--ODAT!
