Eleven Days Out - Feeling Better.

I just realized I don't have pain when I lay in my bed anymore. I slept through the night for the last two nights!

 

I weighed myself one time after surgery (7 days) and lost 16 pounds but after reading about so many people seeing stalls in weight loss after a couple of weeks, I decided to wait until my post surgery appointment to weigh again. I'm anxious but I don't have accurate scales so I think I'm better off just waiting.

 

Gas still sucks and I'm starting to think this is going to be forever. I've tried everything I can think of and everything I've read here. None of it helps much. I took medicine every day of my life for acid reflux before surgery and it always fixed it - Now nothing works.

 

Before the surgery I took a time released sleeping pill every night. That pill doesn't work anymore. I am taking the same medicine but 10 less mg and not time released now. Don't know why that change happened.

 

I have been really tired this week and I think part of it is from going back to work so soon but then again if I sit around at home I have to keep getting up and walking to get rid of the gas so I might as well be at work.

 

I guess I didn't realize until I read this post that I must be feeling a little down. I think I'm feeling confused and anxious because I used to be content to be at home watching tv when I wasn't at work. Now I'm starting to feel less content with sitting at home. Kinda scary - I might have to actually start doing things outside of home for social reasons!

Well if you are anxious about going outsie the house for social reasons, maybe have a small get together at your house? I am going to hace a few friends over for an Oscar Party. It has my love of TV and not wanting to get out of the house lol. I cant wait to sleep through the night, maybe when i get the drain out. Well good luck on your continued success.
