Feeling much better!

I took a shower, blow dryed my hair, put in hot rollers and slapped on some makeup... I just wanted to feel human again! It is amazing what a little fixing yourself up can do to a girl's self esteem. I was starting to scare my self everytime I walked past a mirror! I am still kind of tender and have weened my self off the pain medication... it was making me too drowsy and light headed and I need to get back to work tommorow so I will just take Alieve from now on....

So on to what I have been eating....

NOT MUCH! Not because I don't feel hungry but because my doctor told me to stick to liquids for 3 weeks.... liquids do not make me feel full. At all. So I am living off of tomato soup, protein drinks, water and ya... thats about it. It sucks but I have been seeing results...

As for now I am just sitting up and trying to pass the time until I fall asleep tonight and go to work tommorow... :)

you're right - a little make up can do wonders for your looks and your attitude. men don't know what they are missing - not that i want then in makeup! :)

If you're still hungry, don't forget about Jell-O and sugar-free popcicles. Those are fair game during the liquid portion and can really help you feel full in between meals.
