Worst day so far....

The pain to the left of my belly button was almost unbearable! Didn't get my meds in yesterday, so that probably didn't help any! I'm still just getting in about half my Protein. Haven't used the bathroom in two days... Gas is awful and it wont go anywhere! Today was one of those "what have I done" days!

Jess<br />Surgiversary 9/19/12

I am down 18.4 lbs since my pre-op visit!!!!!

Welllllllllllllll

Last night I went into a very rapid rate fib and am now in the hospital. I converted to sinus rhythm after 4 hours but they still admitted me. Should be discharged soon. My cardiologist changed my meds so I can take a small capsule instead of crushing the bp med which was hard to choke down. I also continue to have diarrhea but when I called to inform my surgeon they said they could not send the message until I was discharge , the hospitalist has to page them. I was like but they don't need to talk to them I do to consult about what's going on but thanks anyway.

So sorry, Rachel and Jessica. I hope you both feel better soon. Starting to get a little better for me. I even went to Walmart and held my baby today. Of course, now I'm all ready for pain med and a nap, but I'm still pretty pleased. I'm staying away from the scale as much as I can because I still feel so bloated. It's wired cooking for the kids and smelling pizza without eating any. At least I can honestly say that I'm not hungry. Just drinking the protein is work. Getting closer and closer to a slimmer, leaner me. Yay!
