So outta touch, but I'm back...

I'm alive, and well finally...

It's been a rough week.  Well rough is putting it mildly...surgery pain I expected, but I definitely didn't expect to have so many complications with medications.  First the main pain medication made me extremely nauseous, as to be expected...but now when I'm asked if I'm allergic to any medications, the answer will be an resounding YES!!  It really sucks to find this out when you have abdominal surgery and the effect is has on me is vomiting.  All this from the medication that was suppose to make my stomach NOT queasy!  SHEW.  Phenogren is not my friend.  Side note: the doctor is not worried about the vomiting as there was nothing in the band or in my stomach. 

Other than not sleeping because of no pain meds, things went ok...but not sleeping more than a couple hours at a time takes it's tole on someone.  Last night was the first night I was successful, and I'm happy to say I slept for 11 hours!  I woke up feeling like a champ.

I'm having a hard time timing my protein shakes.  I'm definitely sick of them, but I've decided I'm going to play with flavors a bit more so maybe they'll be not so boring.  I am eating jello and soups and Popsicles, but can't seem to get all my protein in if I don't have two shakes. 

Well, I'm exhausted.  I have taken pictures, but I'll upload them tomorrow.  I only wish I had taken some before my pre-surgery diet too because I can tell a huge difference already.
