A week after surgery..
Jan 10, 2011
My surgery was last week....I`m really struggling with the water ..I can`t get enough. I think I`ve had enough but my urine was dark this afternoon. It might have something to do with the fact that I went to the grocery store and bank... did take a taxi and my boyfriend along for support, but I did get pretty exhausted and sweaty...
Today I got milk and yogurt. Thank heavens no lactose intolerance showed up!! I really love dairy products.
It`s a full time job to feed this little stomach.
I assume you all had a lot of orientation about what expect while recuperating. I have a ditzy nutritionist who didn`t even give me diet information until after my surgery. I think I will try to find someone else. She tells me not to drink more than 1000 mls of water a day which is very strange as it appears the minimum is twice that in the U.S.
Well when I was in The States in December I ordered a couple of books from Amazon.com, and I`ve been online looking at hospital sites getting information... and trying to mesh that with what she`s telling me... I need a local source because she does know what`s available here.
One thing I`m wondering..... after laproscopic surgery... gastric bypass... How soon are supposed to go back to work?
Anyway... it`s an adventure and my last chance! If I don`t drop a lot of weight this way, I never will healthily.
