Hi All,

I'm Back!! I had surgery on 08/30, then 2 weeks off to heal and here I am back at work!! All went well with the surgery, Spent a long time in Recovery (they couldn't find me a room!!), then to ICU for the night and morning, then to my very own room.

All is going well. I'm having a little pain issue with my left side, but that will pass!! Kelly just says it's to remind me I had surgery I could do without the reminder!! I'm on the soft diet now, I spend my time trying to get get 50g of protein in!! So far so good, don't know that I'm actually getting any where near 50, but I feel good and have energy.

So far I'm not hungry at all. I have to remind myself to eat. I've had a couple episodes of eating to much, I haven't figured out my limits yet... I'm trying the 5 times a day, 3 mains then a protein snack like cheese or something, I'll see how that goes.

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment." Kate White

So glad to hear from you. Welcome to the group of loosers! Take good care of yourself and don't over do it. Sounds like you've got a good start on the food/protein intake.

Lynne,

Glad to hear you are doing well. Don't worry about the 50g of protein right now.. just worry about your fluids and getting as much protein as you can tollerate. You won't be able to get the 50 in for some while I think.. anyway good luck to you girl.. glad you are ok..
