So I'm usually quite the busy body, for my work...

So I'm usually quite the busy body, for my work I'm on my feet all day interacting with people in various situations. I've become restless in this room. I'm starting to become bothered by my smell but refuse to shower until right before my massage(I REFUSE TO TAKE MY GARMENT OFF AGAIN UNTIL I HAVE TO-IT's HELL and I can't imagine doing it by myself right now)

SO, here's what I'm doing with my time:

-ITUNES Audio books(I have my own paperback books but it's hard to read while lying down on your stomach constantly). Listening has been great.

-Regular books...when I'm up for it, I read real books..nothing like feeling the pages

-Meditation...I've really used it. Breathing has helped me tremendously and learning how to focus my mind. This is all really a mind game. I'm in a blood soaked garment, I stink, I can't go anywhere and I'm in pain...this could easily lead to lot's of negative thoughts. Instead of taking myself there, I'm using the time for stuff I might not otherwise have ample time for.

-Calf raises...to keep the blood flowing to my calves, I do calf raises

-Journal

-Work emails

-Online class(found a great deal on groupon for an online business class so I'm just doing it for fun)

Oh, and P.S. I BEASTED that toilet this morning. I fought my gag reflex, put some gloves on, plunged the heck out the toilet and handpicked the babywipes out. It was intense.

And, the worst pain for me has been the tension in my upperback and neck and getting in and out of bed so frequently. I havent worked out in a really long time and I can't access my stomach muscles, it's quite hard to lift myself out of bed so much....it's like doing push ups on a soft surface.

Well, the point of this blog is to be reall....and...

Well, the point of this blog is to be reall....and since I can't call my friends to tell them about this craziness I have no choice but to tell all of you here. I woke up from a lovely nap, farted once, got out of the bed to do some walking then farted again....felt the urge to pee and in the process of me getting ready to pee, I felt it...yes IT. There's no way I could've stopped it, I was here alone and there wasn't enough time to take my garment off. My only option was to stand my legs on either side of the toilet and hope my aim was good enough. I separated the two pieces of garment that went in my butt, covered one hand with a babywipe and tried unsucessfully to "catch" the green goo. When I tell you it slid out of me, I'm not lying. What looked to be creamy spinach dripped out of me without any pushing....dripped everywhere. Mind you, I can't bend so I cleaned the floor by dropping babywipes on the ground, using my foot to move it in a circular motion and gripping the babywipes with my toes to then throw in the toilet. And to make matters even more interesting, I've now clogged the toilet. So how did I have a bowel movement so quickly after surgery you ask?

-Well, I take probiotics three times a day an hour after my antiobotics
-I drink plenty of water
- I eat a few prunes a day and plenty of fruit
-I'm not eating many processed carbs(yesterday I had a few unsalted crackers, today I had some white rice)
-I squeeze fresh lemons into my water for liver cleansing purposes

There's more to update but I just had to share.

Oh, and btw...I measured my waist wrong the night before surgery, going in it was a 29. And, I also brought with me a yoga mat to put under my thighs on the plane-it could be more sturdy for those of you worried about the boppy not having enough support.

And finally, everyone I met in the office today....you all are fabulous....good luck!

I made it out of surgery a few hours ago...decided to thug it out and skip the pain meds. Lots to update but I'm doing great! I've historically had periods so bad they made me pass out, this is less pain, more discomfort and achines and major stiffness. Forced myself to walk, drink water, eat crackers and soup and dried cherries. I got 1050 EACH cheek.

I paid my deposit for Dr. Pazmino but after reading about doctor Salama decided to pay my deposit there. My date is set for March 19th, 2013!
