So far so good

Today is day 8 post-op. I started back to work two days ago. I though I was ready but maybe I should have taken a whole week off. It was crazy busy and I didn't get enough sleep the night before. I'm doing better today though. I've been looking forward to day 8...today is the day I got to start full liquids. I don't really know when I'm full though. When I swallow liquids to fast my chest hurts. Is that normal? So after a few bites I feel like my chest is about to start hurting and that's when I stop. I'm down 14lbs today. Two lbs a day as of right now. It's crazy. My pre-op appt is next Thursday. I'm feeling super good. The past five months pre-op I was having headaches everyday. They have almost completely disappeared. Since I'm off tomorrow...maybe I will treat myself to a pedicure. Oh! Can anyone tell me anything about the Iso-pure protein drinks? I'm not really feeling the super whey protein shots.
