Motivation.... Day 8

I have none this morning, the most exciting thing I have done this morning was download the blogger app to my phone.

 

I do not want to get out of bed, I do not want to go ''start the day''.

 

I think it started yesterday, wait, actually yesterday I had motivation. I got up, took a nice long shower and felt so wonderful!! I went to the Dr. too. Got cleared off bed rest, got cleared to drive, found out when I could start exercising, when I can start water aerobics, and got cleared off the clear liquid diet :)

I think its a little soon, but I have introduced yogurt and last night I introduced soup...YES SOUP. I had chicken and potato soup, bullet'ed, strained, and 1/2 cup.

OMG it was soo good, I was full but gassy the rest of the night so I think I am going to reign it back in some and stick with the yogurt and some blander foods before going back to a richer soup again.

 

 

I slept good last night! Which is a big plus. I have avoided the scale. When I went in to see the Dr. yesterday I didn't look on the scale to see what it says, I don't wanna know yet. I think I want to concentrate on NSV (Non Scale Victories) before I start stressing over what the scale says.

 

 

My fingers feel thin today, I know that sounds strange but my fingers don't feel swollen I guess is a better way to say it.

 

 

Well the chickens and Ducks wait for no woman so I am going to get up and get moving.

 

 

Hope everyone has a great day!!

 

 

Write tomorrow.

Hey txflea.....

So glad that you are doing well. I have been told to expect liquids for 2 weeks post op then the next two weeks soft/mushy foods! That seems different from your Dr. How are you getting around? What kind od exercise can you do so soon after surgery? Sorry for all the questions.....getting ready for my surgery and learning what I can through you! lol

Hope you have a great day....Lisa

No problem MsGal. Each Dr is different. Mine just kinda told me to go with what my body could tolerate. I had soup today again, but I think I overdid it now I am miserable :/ So tomorrow I'm going back to just the solid liquids.

My Dr told me I could walk, walk, walk, walk ...lol no lifting no heavy cardio. No water aerobics yet, give that about a month.

Otherwise, just be gentle on myself.

Message me any time!!
