Day 4 Post Op

Much better day yesterday. Was able to shower (hallelujah!). Felt like a new person! Also got out of the house and drove. I'm not on any pain meds and still feel a bit weak, but I took a friend with me just to make sure. I upped my liquid intake, which is supposed to help my weak feeling and also the constipation. Walking around with a water bottle always!

Went and got some Benefiber--hope it works! I'll probably lose another couple pounds once that kicks in!

Going to NJ for a wedding tonight. The nurse told me that I could have a couple of spoonfuls of mashed potatoes. I am really looking forward to that!

The only time that the "munchies" seem to be bad are at night, when I'm watching TV. I substitute an Edy's ice pop for my craving. It's not perfect, but it gets me through!

Down 7 pounds since Wednesday! Exciting journey! ODAT!!
