2 week post surgery exam



Recommended Posts

Saw my surgeon this morning, he was pleased at how my incisions look and my abdomen feels. He gave me clearance to start adding various foods into my diet starting of course with the soft foods and depending on how I handle things back to regular foods in my own time. He was ok with the idea that 1/4 to 1/2 of a cup of food at each meal was just right and depending on my workout the amount of calories I am getting can be increased. He cleared me to swim and work out but no crunches for a while.

Im so excited, no more shakes, Soups, and jello!

I will have to say that the liquids only phase was hard but well needed! I have NEVER been so happy just to get a spoonful of refried Beans in my entire life!!! Enjoy your puree phase and congratulations!!!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
