Day 7 - Turned The Corner

8:00 AM. Happy Valentine’ Day everyone! I feel great today. I can stand up completely straight longer than before. My incisions do not hurt at all. I only have slight lower ab soreness and I mean slight. I only notice it when I stretch. My stomach is way less bloated but still a little tender on the top half of my abs. I think this is due in part to the hiatal hernia repair I had in addition to my VS.

 

I am having a protein shake for breakfast this morning. Will check in later.

 

9:30 PM. I finally was able to drink 32 oz of water. And I was able to get in 1 1/2 protein shakes. And I walked 1.0 miles today. I think I just turned the corner. :)
