Well it has been a while so I thought I would give you an update. Since my surgery, things have been good in that I am not going to say great. It has been a huge challenge to get the 64 ounces of water in but I have been able to get the 50 to 60 grams of protein in each day. With waking up at 7am, I don't start eating or drinking until 9am which I finds works well for me so this is something that I am going to stick with. On a daily, I try to walk at least 30 to 45 minutes so that I get some cardio in however, there is no weight lifting for another 4 weeks which is driving my crazy but I will obey doctor's order. But please let me say that the pain in my upper back has driven me crazy the last three days but with a good heating pad, things are great. And oh brother constipation is killing me now, but hopefully the Miralx will provide relieve.

So right now everything is just normal right now but I can't go back to work Monday like I anticipated. My surgeon would like to see me first to make sure everything is okay before he releases me. Therefore, it looks like I will be home until next Wednesday. Trust me I am not upset because that let's me know that he is truly concern about me.

This has truly been a great experience for me and trust me I wouldn't change a thing.
