RE my previous posting
Hello everyone,
Thanks for your words. I know some of you are worried about me. I am feeling better today. I was actually able to take a shower and afterwards felt much better.
A few asked me if I should be eating the pudding and yogurt. Dr. Hruska and her nurse Judy said that I was doing what I was supposed to be doing but I needed to eat more than once a day. For this first week I am supposed to be on a full liquid diet.
Next week I will be able to start a pureed diet and stay on that for one month. Then I can graduate to eating more normally...and I know I must chew well.
They want me to walk more. I am trying to do that.
Thanks everybody,
Julie
Glad to hear you are feeling better. I am glad to hear you up and about. Just remember to walk, walk, walk. I see Dr. Hruska tomorrow at 11 for preop. WHat all happens then? I have lost 16lbs since the 20th of June. She wanted me to lose 20-30lbs. I hope this will be ok. I am glad to hear you are doing better. Just keep up the good work and drink your fluids and get the protein in.
Congradulations on being on the losing side.
