4 Days Since Surgery
Hello! I got out of the house today for the first time today. Took my 6 year old to the movies and to eat at McDonalds. I think it was good for me to get out for a few hours but it sure wore me out.
When will the gas pain go away? That's really my only complaint. When I sip my water or broth or whatever, it's just the worst pain. It goes away pretty fast but sure does hurt.
I still can't believe I did it, I swear if feels like yesterday I was waiting with a week to go. I did get on the scale this morning and I'm down 8lbs since Monday morning.
Thanks for all your support!

It will take a while to get your energy back. You just had major surgery so give yourself some time. My sister took me for a pedicure on about the 5th day and even that wore me out but it was good.
Your new tummy will be less sore as time goes on but sometime the gas continues. Try some gax-x strips. That helps some.
Hurray for the 8lbs. It is really amazing to watch the scale leap downward in the beginning. Enjoy it, it doesn't go that fast forever.

So happy for you on the eight pounds! Good luck getting rid of the gas pains. You should almost be through the worst of it by now!

PS- Watch out letting your kids have McDonald's. They use a lot of preservatives and ingredients that are really bad for kids. You can find out more about that on the Internet!
