So far so good!

Well the weekend is over.  It went okay.  I've had some issues with night time drinking as I'm used to drinking quite a bit throughout the night and doing that is not an option right now.  The few drinks I have during the night make me nauseous.  :/   I am no longer on pain meds as of Saturday night. I am just taking a Tylenol as needed.  I feel better being off the pain meds as they make me feel ucky.

Today is my first day of full liquids. I have been on a clear liquid diet since the day before surgery.   Right now I am drinking a protein shake. It's okay.  I'm not hungry in the slightest but I know that I am in great need of protein at this point so will do my best to get my protein requirements in.  :)  I am also allowed yogurt, soups (creamed) and pudding now.  Not sure if I will even make it to eating those with these protein shakes.  lol

I walked on Saturday and yesterday went to Walmart.  I probably overdid it a little too much by going to Walmart. I was tired and needed a nap when we got home.  Today I am going to focus on a couple small walks and some picking up.  I also need to get started back on school work as I did not even pick up a book last week.  I am planning on classing tomorrow night so need to get caught up.

Overall, I feel that things have been going good and am looking forward to continuing to heal and get more energy!
