3rd Day In

I had my surgery Monday and today is Thursday. The surgery went well. I woke up in some pain. There is a gas pain that some people get in their left shoulder. I was prepared for it and sure enough I woke up with it. The first thing I said was "oh no, i got "the pain"' I woke up in recovery and i had a mask on for oxygen and I ripped it off. The nice nurse told me that I needed to keep it on and I said "slightly claustrophobic." He laughed and gave me a oxygen nose tube instead. My belly hurts. I got dry heaves my first day and it hurt so bad!!! that so far was the worst thing of all of this.

I have been resting and sleeping most of the day. I have weighed myself already. Scott thinks I am crazy for doing it, but I had to see. I have already lost 13 lbs. Yay!!! I am hoping to be under 200 lbs by the end of the week.

What am I eating? I am eating sugar free low fat vanilla yogurt, chicken broth, jello, and protein shakes. I eat three meals a day and two protein shakes, or at least I am supposed to. I have not been able to eat all of that in one day yet. My nutritionist called this morning to check on me and I told her I have not been able to fit it all in and she lectured me. So I am doing good today so far.

What am I doing besides sleeping? Walking. Walks make me feel much better. I am up to 20 minute walks. I am going to be at 30 minutes by Saturday. The walks help the gas pains.

I am feeling good and can't wait to see the scale move more!!!!
