Today has been a good day so far, my 2 year old jumped in my lap when I wasn't looking, reflexively I guarded my stomach, so he only hit the far left wound. My mom is here waiting for me to be ready to go walking. LOL. I hate it but love it. Mom's are great like that. I took my first real shower today and was very careful with my incisions.

My DH used adhesive remover on places where I had adhesive build up from surgery and bandages. I am fortunate, I have a whole box of adhesive remover from when I was undergoing chemotherapy and we had to change my port bandage every 3 days and get the glue off from the tape. He gently placed bandages back over all of my incisions. For some reason, I feel more secure with bandaids over them for now.

Emotionally I feel great. I feel like going back to work on Tuesday after the holiday will be just fine.

Food on Day 4:

morning: 1/2 cup coffee with equal, didnt drink it all. I was hoping this would act as dieretic, but it didnt.

Breakfast: 1/2 cup of grits w/slice of cheese melted. Didn't eat it all.

Lunch: Packaged low sodium potatoe and green onion soup. Only have to mix 8 oz of water. I first tried adding a scoop of unjury powder to it and it was disgusting, so I threw the first batch out and started over. This was the second time unjury powder was a failure. I need to research this and see what other ppl are doing with unjury powder.
