Passing Me By

On May 2, 2006 I had Gastric Bypass Surgery. In this journal I will be telling of my ups and downs, the good and the bad. Please be warned that this blog may contain very personal things about me as well as some in depth descriptions of many things. If this is something you may not be able to handle, please do not read my blog.

45-60 Grams of Protein

Well I'm trying very hard to get my protein in but it's very difficult when you are limited as to what you can eat! The drinks are nasty... so I ordered some stuff from a website for Bariatric Eating and it's supposed to be fabulous. We'll see!

I just want to say that I am feeling yucky today and emotional as well... not sure why but might be because I feel so bad that my hubby is doing everything to take care of me and Kaitlyn these past couple weeks and it's not over yet...

I have to head to the Dr this afternoon to get my drain out. I managed to get Jon to take a picture of my drain so here it is. I hope it does finally come out this afternoon, I'm sick of it and it's getting gross. The drainage is less than half of what it was when I left the hospital and it's a clear yellow color so I think there is nothing to worry about. It's just that there are nasty chunks in the collection bulb and it's nasty to look at! :) Ah well I'm sure it will be gone and I can get on with healing. I sure know sleeping will be all the much better!

I'll post after my appointment later, when I know what the future looks like! :)
