Approved for Surgery July 11

I am doing great! I really can't complain. The hardest part is getting in all the liquids. My stomach feels like it is cramping just a little if I take a sip that is too big. It is weird being able to feel that. My doctor has had me on full liquids since Saturday, so I am able to eat cottage cheese, sugar-free Jello, creamed Soups, etc. I am drinking Protein drinks throughout the day because he wants me to eat 6 times so I do small portions until my stomach gets healed. I can eat about 4 teaspoons of cottage cheese before I start to burp and reading what others have said on here, I am taking that as being full. I am really surprised that I am actually not feeling so much cramping when I drink today, so its true that each day gets better and better.

I need to get some more walking in starting today. It is so hot during the day as you probably know living in Texas. I will either have to wait until this afternoon or perhaps what we did yesterday and go to Wal-Mart and walk the isle ways while we window shop to get in my walk. There is always a way.

Dawn

Thank you Dawn.

How are you doing? Getting in your liquids?
