Day TWO after Surgery

By 2FIT2BFAT

· 658 views

Well, this much I know. I feel 100% better. The "Tiny" Gas pills are a blessing. They have really taken alot of the bloating out of my stomach and I am not taking the pain med anymore. which was making me nauseous. I have been drinking liquids, but have a hollow feeling in my gut. Hurts sometimes. I made some potato soup (NOTE TO SELF: PEEL POTATOES NEXT TIME...) and has helped take the Hollow out. I had that yesterday about 3 times at 1 TBL per sitting and I think it is miracle potatoe soup. I feel so much better today. Am still taking it easy. I slept so much better last nite as well. Wish I could sleep on my stomach, but alas, not yet. So FAR so GOOD. YEAH ! :P

    So glad you are feeling better. Even though it's hard remember to keep up your strength and eat! Surgery is a major assault on your body and without proper nutrition it will rebel and take longer to heal.

    Good luck
