Two weeks post-op
Two weeks since surgery and I have to keep pinching myself to remember that I had major surgery and that my tummy is now different than it was before. I have had great success with liquids this week and developed a routine to fit in my Benefiber, Prilosec, Pepto and Tums along with Elete drops in water, broth, V8, juice, saltines and yogurt. Yesterday, I watered down my yogurt with a little ice and my Benefiber, put it in the Magic Bullet and made a quasi-smoothie. I sipped it most of the evening. I started making some salt water to keep by my bed so when I wake up in the night I can take a couple sips and it helps keep me hydrated so I'm not so fuzzy in the morning. Now I am ready for Stage 2. I'm glad it will be the weekend so if anything I try bothers me, I will be home to deal with it instead of at work. Today is casual day at work and I usually have to stretch my shirt before putting it on so it will feel comfortable to wear. I did not have to do that this morning. I put my shirt on and it was already comfortable. I've already had to retire a couple of sweaters because they are too big. What a great feeling!!!!!!!
