Aloha!!
Thank you Nikki, CiCi and GoingSlimFast.....I really appreciate all your support. You all made me feel a lot better.
I actually have reached a turning point. On Saturday morning (2 days ago) I woke up in NO pain, for the first time since my surgery and since that dreadful pain in my left side had hit me. It just ...disappeared! This reaffirms my belief that scar tissue had built up around that incision and I guess every time I moved, it ripped away or broke up and now it's gone. Amazing.
I also have begun to accept that this is how my life is going to be now. Something, I'm not sure what, happened over the weekend to help me be more accepting. I still look at people on TV with some jealousy when I see them eating whatever they want, but it's not as bad. Maybe time has helped me.
However, I am pretty frustrated with my NON weight loss right now. At the end of this week I'll have 6 full weeks under my belt since surgery and I've been stuck at the same weight for weeks. I even gained 4 lbs! I just started to be able to eat and enjoy a little bit of regular food...please don't tell me I have to go back to liquids! Say it ain't so!! When will this weight loss embargo that my body has started, end?
Tomorrow (Tuesday) is the day I go to the surgeon and ask him wtf is wrong with my leg. I'll update tomorrow.
Thanks again,
Hawaiian
