A week ago Tuesday I had my surgery and so far, I feel fine. I'm hungry for real food again, but I take that as a good sign.
I worked out on the treadmill again today. Two 15 minute sessions instead of three 10 minute sessions. It was a bit tougher, but I did it - and kept my heart rate in the fat burning range.
Right now, I'm finding it hard to keep drinking liquids - since I don't feel dehydrated. Don't get me wrong - I have been drinking water (okay, sipping), but it seems as if my stomach gets full after a few sips. Wonder what that's all about? I'll probably call the nutritionist tomorrow. I want to know when I can start soft foods. I know it's only been a week, but I really can't take this sweet stuff. I'd rather drink a couple of ounces of stuff with 25 grams of protein, than eat pudding and shakes. I know I've mentioned this before, but I'll be glad when I can have mashed potatoes and cottage cheese!
I tried doing some light chores today and it really took it out of me. At least I know not to push myself. Plus, I can rest whenever I want, which is a luxury I won't have once I get back to work.
Overall, I'm feeling pretty good but I haven't tried weighing myself. I don't want to be a scale watcher. I'd rather let me clothes tell me the weight is coming off!
