Home from Hospital

Hello  I made it and know I'm alive to tell you my story.  Most of my adventures will be posted on my blog so if you would like to stop by and take a read you are welcome.  I do have pictures up too.  For some reason I can upload a profile picture.  Still trying to work on that one.  I'm 5 days post op and feeling pretty good.  I have to admit I'm tired of liquids and need something more.  My doctor wants me to have 800 calories a day!  I'm lucky to get 350.  I don't know how to get that many on just liquids.  Can't wait until Friday when I can add more stuff.

Congrats Julie, Welcome to the losing side of surgery. Your calorie intake will improve with time. There is no way that you can get in that many calories at this point. Hugs

Wow Julie, I do NOT see how your surgeon thinks you canget that many calories in this soon. Thats alot. Usually 500 is about tops at this point and can be hard.

Glad you made it through well. Hang in there and let yourself heal. Sip sip sip...protein, and little walks to keep from having clots and to get that air they pumped in you, out.

Welcome to the losers bench! CONGRATS!!!!!!!

julie, congrats on a successful surgery.  i know what u mean about being sick of liquids, i was the same way.  hang in there and good luck to you. vick
