well i am coming up to being 1 week out of surgery as of this wednesday.

i am eating only 2-3 tablespoons right now at a time and eating at 8am,10am,12noon,2pm,5pm.8pm as per directions from dr tang and dietician.

i am having yogurt with puree banana mixed,protien powder with milk and a bit of banana to snack on for snack time and dinner last night i tried pureed cream of chicken soup thinned with milk 1% and some pureed chicken breast and carrots in it but only ate about 3 tablespoons as i get full fast :o) ia m drinking lots of crystal light when allowed and following the rule of no drink 20 mins before eating and no drink 1 hour after i eat.

things are coming along good just weird not being able to do much with my kids around so hubbie is doing all the work so he is helping out big time.

having no problem with watching them eat infront of me which my hubbie was so worried about. getting lots of rest and got a good night sleep last night :o)

started taking my multivitamin and calcium yesterday and that seems to be okay they are chewable so easier the only time i have taken pain meds is once on friday,then on sat once in morning then at night but nothing today so far.

Glad to hear that you are doing well.  :)

well i am off to work tonight to try it out. i work a desk job at the heart and stroke foundation seasonal making calls for 3 hours a night so i am going to try today.

no pain meds since yesterday moning i am still on the couch downstairs for another night i think. i can do the stairs in my place as i get dressed upstairs but it is a bit much so better that toilet and kitchen is downstairs.

went to doctors today since the meds dr tang perscribed for heartburn (which i had last night) were not covered so they gave me the same family of meds but some samplers until i get special authority form done. they weighed me while i was there and it said i was down 15 lbs now cant believe it but thats what it said. :o)

wish me luck tonight lol
