Day 2 post surgery

My surgery was Wednesday January 9th I had the option of coming home yesterday or today. I choose yesterday, so I've been home overnight. Challenges getting in and out of bed and the withdrawal headache from no caffeine. Also I feel as if I have a lump in my throat, from the tube where I was put to sleep. I am hoping this will get better every day. My doctor has stated me Day 2-14 32 oz of skim milk and 32 oz of clear broth. I'm getting up and walking around every 1-2 hours. Then Saturday I will begin my vitamins and am to walk 30 minutes per day.

Welcome to your new life! Personally I have found I can't tolerate milk anymore. I used to love it. I am 4 months and one week out and can eat pretty much anything now. Watching portions is really important, overeating causes serious nausea. I have been fortunate to have never actually thrown up. Not that way for a lot of other folks. I can eat maybe a cup of food total, up from a few ounces at the very beginning. Take things slow, listen to your body, and know that every week there will be improvements and subtle changes. Today is the first day that I am below 200 lbs in over 15 years! Whoo Hoo!
