It's been a week since surgery. Had my follow-up with the doc today to get my godawful drain removed. The good news is that I've lost 20 lbs in one week!
I'm so sick of sweet protein drinks. The doc suggested I get unflavored protein power and add it to things I like, like soup and V-8 juice, so I'm going to try that. I was so desperate for something that wasn't sweet that I went to a Chinese restaurant today to get egg drop soup. Unfortunately, they don't have it, so I got hot and sour soup. I managed to have about 5 spoons of broth and brought the rest of it home. At least it wasn't sweet!
