Post-op Day 3

Shower day!  Woohoo!  Bandaids off. Hair washed. Teeth brushed. Feeling better. Belly still feels like someone used it as a punching bag. The large incision on the right is most painful but only when coughing or moving. No pain at rest. Esophagus feels a little full. Still sucking on ice chips because I feel it’s easiest to get water in and not take too big of gulps. Getting better using the incentive spirometer. Keeping those lungs open so they don’t get a pneumonia. Down 1-1/2 pounds since surgery morning.

Post-op Day 2

Image
RNY went off without a hitch two days ago. Spent the night in the hospital, and was discharged less than 24 hours later. I feel so lucky….no gas pain and no nausea!  My belly is grumbling like no other though! I got no sleep in the hospital, getting vitals done every two hours all night. I think I got an hour between three sets total. Snoozed a little on my couch yesterday then spend 12 hours in bed. Moving from one position to another has been a bit painful. But at rest, I feel fine. Taking in liquids without any issues. I am up half a pound today, but figure that is to be expected! I have had mostly ice chips, a couple ounces of a protein shake, and a cup of sugar-free jello. The liquid Tylenol and gabapentin are nasty!  Feel like I’m gonna puke trying to get those darn things down. I’m using my incentive spirometer and walking around the house. But mostly resting. I have to admit, I’m feeling so much better than I expected!

Post-op Day 12

Can you say FRUSTRATED?!?! I have not lost an ounce in five days!  Such a serious mind f***!  Have surgery and eight days in stall for a week!  Nobody can even tell I’ve had surgery at this point. My body is like nope, nine pounds, we will chill here for a bit!  I’m doing everything I’m supposed to be. Maybe a little low on fluids and protein but most people are at this point!  Had a post op appointment yesterday and she said, “don’t worry, it will come off-maybe stop weighing each day!”  Ugh! Haven’t told my kids, grown kids, yet. Was planning to tell them Friday when I see them.  But dang, they’re not even gonna notice anything and I can just pretend I’m not super hungry, I’ll be on soft foods and can eat some anyway… I’ve read about people stalling around week three…but week 1!  This is some bulls***!  I am literally going to count every ounce and gram today to see exactly where I am liquid and protein wise but I know I’m over half way to the recommendation! Who else has a complete

Pumpkin UNFluff

Image
I have seen lots of variations of this online. Today I gave it a try.  I used 15oz can of pumpkin, 1oz box of sugar free vanilla pudding mix (I have seen it with cheesecake flavor and I really wanted it that way but couldn’t find it!), 8oz sugar free cool whip, few dashes of all spice and a few dashes of cinnamon. Mixed it all together. Note-do not make the pudding, just pour in the pudding box contents.  I took a small serving and added a scoop of unflavored protein powder for me.  Delicious!   I really prefer more natural and organic ingredients. Sugar free and fat free things tend to have so much crap ingredients!  I do not enjoy spending my time in the kitchen. But I will be starting to make more keto/low carb recipes using things like almond flour, stevia, monk fruit, etc as healthier alternatives.  This recipe really was a quick holiday yummy! Lastly please note-Since I don’t enjoy spending time in the kitchen-no recipe I ever post will be my own!  I may take something and tweak
