Surgery 6/4. Came home 6/5. Been in my night gown since I got home, try to get walking around the house. Got 6 walks yesterday at 5 mins each. Today I decided to get up, get dressed and walk outside. I made it 13 mins, and was so discouraged !!!!

Walking! Get out and walk! When I start feeling the pain i know it's time for my 15 min walk. Sure enough pain abates and I feel happier. My surgery was 6/7. Give it a shot - walk slow but get out and move. I do it 4 times a day- goal is 6 times a day as dr suggested 4-6 times a day.

I still feel very confident in all of this. I have my weak moments. I was only eating 3 times a day and just realized I should be eating 6. I can have clear liquids, sf Popsicles, scrambles eggs, light yogurt and mashed pot. The yogurt not working so well. I walk around several times a day, I get a min of 30 mins in per day.

I asked in the hospital, do I get weighed today? The Dr. Said no, you will probably disapointed you may have even gained some weight so don't do it! Between the bloat, gas and swelling. So of course I come home and two days later I step on the scale and I lost 1lb should of listened to the dam Dr!! I am not weighing in unroll Dr. Tess me to!
