Surgery

Jan 12, 2011

Well I had my surgery on Jan 5, 2011.  All went well .  Dr.Huynh was excellent, I am happy I have him.  The first couple days I'll admit I thought "why did I willingly do this to myself?".  "why didnt I try harder to do it on my own?, but I know I needed this, and it was just cuz I was feeling awful.  The last two days, I have started to feel "a little more normal".  Although I actually think I would much rather do optifast shakes, then full fluids.  I had a hard time with the protein drinks till someone here told me about a new one to try, and thank heavens for her, cuz I can tolerate them, and will make this part of My journey a little easier.  I would be lost without my friends here, and the support, it makes the tough times so much easier to manage.  I had lost 20 pounds on my two weeks of optifast, and will wait for my first follow up visit with Dr.hunyh on Feb 8, to see what i lose.  At this point im not focusing on the weight I lose, but am focusing on healing my body and feeling better.  The work after surgery is not easy, but I knew that goin in, so  bye for now, update soon    xoxo   Char
