It's been rough

I got a wound abscess, having to pack it twice a day, on antibotics, still running a temp....not sleeping hardly at all. The up side, I'm doing great with my diet and water intake. It's been almost 2 weeks since surgery and I really dont feel like I have lost a pound and feel bad most of the time from the temp. I have to look at this as a bump in the road, just wish I felt better.

Sorry you are having a rough time but the first month is always pretty rough. It does get better as time passes. If you can get your protien and water in you will soon see progress. When the infection clears up you will feel lots bettter. Just do what your docs say.

Sorry about what you have been through. This will be over soon and then you can go on with your life. Congrats on your diet and the water intake this is very important. Are you taking your vitamins and I know it is hard to get in your protein but try. Hope everything works out o.k. have a great day and God bless, Penni

Soorry you are having to deal with an infection. Just know that you will feel better. On the other hand congratulations on being able to maintain the diet and getting your water in, this is not only important for you weight loss but also your infection healing. Wayne

brenda, hope things get better. I always get some post-op complication like an infection so I know it's painful, worrisome and no fun. Keep your chin up, fluids going in and remember it's worth it....I hope it passes quickly.
