13 days post op

I've been feeling a little depressed. My son gave me is chest cold. For a person who has COPD, those germs tend to settle in my chest. So for the last week I have been coughing like crazy. Anytime I lay down, the coughing is so much worse. I did some research about some of the symptoms of acid reflux. wheezing, and coughing when laying down. I'm going to try some Zantac tonight before I go to bed. Before I had my surgery I prayed that whatever happened I would give God the glory and I would do more volunteer work with my church. When will I have the energy to do that? I'm tired of feeling like crap! I'm tired of not having any energy.

Post Op Day Two

Today is Post Op day 2. I'm still a little sore. I am drinking the Zero Carb Isopure Protein drink. There are 40 grams of protein in each bottle. I can't guzzle, chug or slam it, so I nurse a bottle most of the day. I had planned on drinking two full bottles every day plus the water. Guess what? It didn't happen. I can drink 1 1/2 bottles in a day. I am down 14 pounds from when I first went to the surgical weight loss center. 11 lbs down from when I started my pre-op diet and zero pounds lost since the surgery. The nurses reassured me that is completely normal. They had pumped me so full of liquids, so when I go pee, I go pee!!! I still haven't had a BM yet. That has me concerned a little, but it's not a big concern just yet. I pray everyone is having an excellent day! Go out and make some good memories!
