Im Home and on the loosers bench

I got home around 3 yesterday. Surgery went good. Im really sore today and gas pains are pretty bad. I am walking alot to help with gas though. Hopefully I wont be so sore tomorrow. I  have has a c section and I think that this is worse. Kinda hard to be happy its over with when i feel like this. What did you eat your sencond day. Im doing all I can to drink my water kinda makes me feel queasy. Made some jello, haven't tried it yet though. Well good luck to everyone else that just had their surgery as well, its only gonna get better from here. Holly Weight at doctor 244 Day of surgery 232 Today 231

Holly, you're going to feel way better soon.  I promise!   Get in as much liquids as you can and keep moving. You're doing everything right, so just keep it up. Cream of wheat with extra skim milk is good, so are strained cream soups, made with skim milk, of course.  Unsweetened applesauce.  You should have a list of things you can eat this next couple of weeks, but fluids are most important. I weighed 235 the day of my surgery, and now I'm at 122.  Hang on.....it's a wild ride!

Way to go Holly!!!! I will be joining you on the losers' bench on Thursday! Did you have last minute doubts and second thoughts??? I am but trying to push through them!

Take care!
Jackie

Thank you all for your support. No I didn't have any last minute doubts. Its goes so fast at the hospital you dont have time to think.

HOLLY!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I know you feel pretty bad right now but its gonna be OK!!! I know you have heard that hundreds of times, but trust me, you will start to feel better with each passing day. Then as the months go by and the pounds fall off, you will think to yourself, WHY DIDN'T I DO THIS SOONER??? Yes, its that amazing!! Take care of yourself and if you need anything, feel free to ask? I will help you out in any way that I can. Also, all I had was water and gatorade for the first three days or so. Did not want any food. The queasy feeling is probably the anesthesia wearing off. Just take it easy and give yourself time to heal!!   Karen

It will get better soon, don't you worry!   Welcome to the loser's bench! 

Hang in there Holly!  You're doing great!
