2 Weeks and 3 days Post-Op

Hi All-

 

Reading through some of the blogs I realize how happy I am now that I can eat "real food". I guess I have been pretty lucky because when I was liquid only, I felt fine...not hardly hungry except the last few days. Then, when I went to mushies I felt fine again. Now that I am eating 'real food' I still feel like I am eating mushies because I have to chew so well.

 

My scarring looks pretty good. I have 1 big, ugly scar, and 1 that is smaller but still kind of ugly. The other 3 will probably leave no scar at all.

 

I have only really been eating 2 meals a day because I am using hunger as my guide. I'm not really hungry at all in the morning, so I have my cup of coffee and move on about my day, I also haven't even really been missing my Diet Coke's or the breads and carbs. I still have a few mashed potatoes w dinner since my hubby hasn't figured out how much to cook yet.

 

So far, so good. I see my surgeon this coming Thursday, so I will see what he says. Otherwise, I feel good and am happy about the surgery.

 

Back later this week.
