Post Op - Day 4

So far, so good. I got in a 17oz protein shake with 42g of protein, 2 bottles of water, a small coffee, 1 packet of cream of wheat, and a SF pudding yesterday, all with no issues. Just have to take my time and do baby sips.

 

Slept for 4.5 hours straight last night! That's a record since the surgery. Woke this morning feeling pretty good. I still have brief moments of feeling a teeny weeny faint, but then it passes and I'm good for a while. Don't know if that's lack of food, lack of sleep, or just from the surgery itself.

 

Today, again I'm going to focus on getting in the nutrition, liquids, and just all around resting. The weather is absolutely beautiful, so the windows are open, and I will go for a few short walks later today.

You are doing great...keep up the good work ! It is hard to get the fluids in but it does get easier.

I can't wait to be on the other side. I just got started. I see you are in Arkansas. I'm in Missouri not far from you in Cape Girardeau, MO. I just started my journey. Hope to have a surgery date in a few months. I'm soooo scared. I keep going back and forth about having it. I'm consumed. LOL Can't sleep or anything. I need this so badly! I've been overweight off and on most of my life. Lose only to gain it right back. Sometimes up to 100 pounds... GOOD luck on your journey!! Can't wait to say I'm 4 days out. How was the surgery? Much pain?
