Great to hear you are feeling better. I tried the protein shake too my second day ( they say in my post op to have 3 a day for the first week or so). There was no way I was getting more than 2/3 in of one only.

Hoping that it will get easier to get everything in but not too easy LOL.

Wow... good that you already get a protien drink! I have my surgery Monday and I don't start shakes till day 8. Just the clear liquids the first full week! So glad to hear you are feeling better!

Note to my independant self: Driving is not an option yet! I really wanted to go to get a pedi to kinda perk me up but hubby of course refused to drive me ( he was busy), so I was going to drive myself. Ha!! I could not get in the car without having help! So I just went back in and sat down on the couch and pouted. I am so used to doing everything for myself

you are so funny. but i hear you on the independent thang! LOL! you're doing great hun..keep up the good work.

lol, it is really hard to sit still. I thought that I was really great at chilling out and relaxing before the band but now that I cannot do much of anything, I realized that I really didn't relax all that much before.

The pedicure sounds like a great idea.

Just take it easy so that you can heal. Good Luck!
