Surgery Tuesday morning-went home Wednesday night--One Night--was fine for me-really no reason I needed to stay linger

Just talked with my doctors nurse! I get to start working couple hours a day from home till full release at 3 weeks post op! I'm excited! Now I can "sip while I work"! Today is one week post-op and I feel really good--last 2 days I've gotten all my hydration in and consistently get 60 protein-she said that's prob why I'm feeling good. Been very blessed so far-no nausea and sipping is easy--hope he didn't leave my pouch too big lol

I've picked up the Soft Foods list about 4 times today! I'm SO ready for refried beans!!!! Lol

Today is the first day my mind is messing with me. I'm at home post-op 6 days and doing great--but today I have been very hungry. With all the talk of the hurricane it's making me think of all the comfort foods I would normally be prepping for...BUT...I did this for me--the new me! Sip on!

The 23rd was my surgery also. Even though its only been 5 days...I feel like I've been drinking liquids forever!! Looking forward to "Soft Foods" soon!

I'm actually just 5 days post-op! The soups are Campbell's Naturals "Light" or "Healthy Request" you do not have to add water--I strain them 2x thru a small mesh strainer. I have enjoyed the Potato & cheese, Clam Chowder, and Mushroom

So I had to run in the grocery tonight to get a couple more cans of a soup I've been straining that actually tastes yummy--I call it my dinner. My oh my...everything in there looked SO tasty!!! Even stuff I don't normally like! Won't be going there again for a while!

Surgery 10/23--5 days post-op! Starting to feel human again and gotten a better system on my drinking. Already down 12 lbs!

I'm 5 days post-op; spoke with my doctor this morning and he recommended a Dulcolax suppository with one dose of Milk of Magnesia. Only took about 20 mins to work
