First Day at Home Going Well

I'm feeling much better now that I am out of the hospital, but I still have a fair amount of pain. I never thought drinking water could be this hard! I feel like I am constantly drinking, but it is going down so slow. As far as food goes, I am actually feeling more satisfied now than I was on the pre-op diet. I have been able eat almost 2 oz of runny food like yogurt, but only 1 oz of food that is a little thicker like cottage cheese. I'm taking it one day at a time, and I feel good about the progress I've made so far. 

Glad you made it home. It all gets easier as the days go by.

Funny, I didn't want to leave the security of the hospital nurses.  When I got home, I remember sitting in a recliner and propping up a sport bottle of water on a pillow to let the water slowly seep in...sounds pathetic but I was feeling pathetic and it worked even when I napped.  

I'm glad you are doing good and healing fine. Been praying for all of us with these surgeries. :)

I'm glad your doing good. I too find I am always sip sip sipping. lol. And rest too. I still feel a little tired. I'm so use to doing things and going out but I have to ease up and relax. I have a wonderful support group here at home. Its a nice feeling. 

Congratulations and wishing you a speedy recovery and a bright future. Way to go!!

Great to hear! I am hoping to join you on the losing side in a few weeks, just waiting for final insurance approval. Keep up the good work! 

Yippeeeeee. Glad to hear this. So happy for you. I tried a shake from Walmart ( I bought the powder and put one scoop in a cup of 1 percent milk and mixed it) Its called Super advanced Whey Isolete. It was good. I got the Isolete one which was alittle more expensive but its 30 protein for one scoop. I got chocolate and it was delicious. 

Again, So happy to hear your home. My date is April 23rd.. :)
