post op 1 wk

i am anxious for my post op today. wonder if i have lost any weight. still trying to get my strength back. it is so hard to get all the water in. you just don't feel like drinking.

I had a horrible time getting in my water at first. Ended up dehydrated getting IV's at the ER. But it got easier with some time, now I can drink quite alot. Gotta let your tummy heal and the swelling inside go down. Try and get in what you can. Good luck on your weigh in! ~Christal/dionysus_star

i think it is hard getting the protien in. but went to t he store today and got some more goodies, like fish, rice cakes, graham crackers. i have lost 15 pounds in 9 days since surgery. i was surprised since i haven't been walking much. today i did a bit though at the store. the emotional ups and downs are not real fun though. nik
