Day 5

Slept well again, trying to sleep on my side not very successful yet. Still pretty sore at the port site. Able to eat protein shake for breakfast, about 4 oz and a cup of hot tea. Some chicken broth for lunch and dinner with a sugar free jello or pudding, snack-sugar free popsicle. Making sure to drink enough water. Have taken a few short walks, but they do me in pretty quick. Only been taking the pain meds at night. Hope to try some yogurt for lunch today. I have been sleeping kind of late, til around 1030, so my day doesn't start too early eating wise.

Day 8

Doing well. Already down 9lbs since surgery. Pretty good for me. Started mushees on Wednesday after my post op visit with Dr. Seem to be doing well with them. Really don't have much of an appetite. This is really about getting healthy for me, no more shots of insulin or pills. Only one med now is for HBP. Taking chewable vitamins, calcium and vitamin C. Breakfast today about 4 oz of Boost high protein vanilla and cream of chicken soup. lunch was a scrambled egg with cheese in a cup. Not sure yet what's in store for dinner yet. Signing off til tomorrow. Good luck to all you other October bandsters!

Day 2

Slept pretty good last night, it may have been the good pain meds. Can only sleep on my back, too sore yet. Had some hot tea, vanilla protein shake and a s/f jello so far today. Really sore, but the pain meds work well as long as I take them every 4 hours. Planning on taking a little walk. Also want to take my before pic.
