did anyone else feel like this??

I am 10 days post op-still hurt a bit.  Sometimes I go through this state of why did I do this to myself.  Is that normal?  I am also so weak, and have cabin fever real bad!!!

I felt the same way.  It took about three weeks for that feeling to go away.  Do I still sometimes miss pigging out?  You bet.  But then I remember that I am no longer on any medications and that I can shop anywhere I want.  Hang in there, it will get better.

I was weak and tired for two weeks after.  And your body knows what it needs.  Just rest and enjoy the time off.

From my profile at about 20 days out - 7/5/04 Two days of nausea accompanied by retching. The tuna and chicken didn't do well. I may have eaten to fast although it was three times slower that I did pre-op. I went back on the shakes diet for two days and that seemed to help. I even tried a little spaghetti sauce last night run through my wand blender and that went down pretty good and tasted great. My scale this morning says 316.4 - I think it's teasing me. That would be a 52# loss since I started and 35 since the cut. I think it's teasing me. It could be a conspiracy of the scales. I will go by the docs office an weigh in on his. 7/6/04 Update - my scale is too kind by 9 lbs. I'll still take it. I called CORI and they think I may be waiting too long between meals and that is causing the nausea/dry heaves. Chuckie thinks if a food doesn't agree with me today it may be fine tomorrow. I'll try the cauliflower stuff today. 7/12/04 A few good days and a few bad. I had a root canal finished and that's not helping. We spent the weekend at the ball park in Armada for the little guy's tournaments. It was a challenge to keep on the nutritional train. I got the heaves on yesterday after a little chicken. Again, it was too fast although it took me about 30 minutes to eat about 8 small bites. I started to have the crazy thoughts while laying on my side waiting for the pain to subside. Eventually it did and I am ok. - yeah ,, we felt that way. kp
