Hello everyone, here we are 2 days post surgery - yesterday was rough to say the least, mostly because I had a migrane headache, possibly from anesthetic, and was zonked out most of the day on migrane meds. Tough, but today is much much better. I had a fairly easy surgery day on Monday, surgery at 7.30am and I was released and sent home at 6pm. I have two small incisions in my naval that are pretty tender and one at the base of my rib cage on the right hand side that doesn't hurt at all.

I am very surprised at how much I can drink - thought it would be minimal but I can drink a Protein drink or cup of broth with no problem. Planning on resting, keeping up with my fluid/protein intake and starting my food journal (plus maybe some wishful thinking window shopping) over the next few days.

So glad its over and the second part of this journey has begun. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and I am excited that the worst and most risky part is over. I feel energized with optimism about the changes that are now going to take place in my life.

Will check back in over next few days! Thanks so much for everyone's good wishes, it certainly helped!!

Rachel
