2weeks out!
$4,000
Monday it will be 2 weeks that I have had my surgery. It has been a rough time. For the first week I was on a full liquid diet. I didn't feel hungry at all so I had to force myself to get stuff in and I was getting really sick of protein shakes. Before my surgery I would read how people have a hard time getting their protein and fluids in and I would think that it was stupid but now I know it really is hard. I have zero interest in ingesting anything. But you do what you gotta do! I had a meeting with my nutritionist the other day and she advanced me to pureed!! Yay I was so happy that I could eat something besides protein shakes! It has been getting better each day and it is definitely a learning process!! I also have been dealing with some depression. The forest couple days after surgery I was really upset and was like 'what the hell did I do to myself' but as I get moving more and eating more it's getting a lot better and now I am back to feeling the optimism and excitement of before surgery! I can't wait for my month surgiversary to see where I am at!!
