Last day of clear liquids. It hasnt been real hard, i mean i am not hungry but i did find myself at fridge once staring into it and at once closed it. I was just bored. I have not cheated or strayed from the clear liquids. I am kind of tired of fruity drinks tho. The crystal lite I had was too fruity. I have different ones so I just have to keep changing it up. I have felt good today. I actually did some laundry and stocked a couple of shelves with water (cases of water on floor by cabinet). I also cleaned off a desk in my room. I did take a short nap but woke up energized. I am not in much pain. It hurts more when I go to lay down. I guess it is the stretching of incisions.
Only thing was that this morning when I peed it was a bit dark which means I'm not drinking enough so I am working on that today. It isnt easy. I sometimes worry about drinking too much at once or too often. Until I get used to it I imagine it will be a challenge. When I do drink I feel bloated and swollen. I hope that is normal. I know I will be swollen for a while though.
Well, I am gonna go for now. I threw a lasagna in the oven for my family (Costco). My husband took my mom to go get some of her medicine. He is such a good guy. I will make some more broth with my crushed red peppers and enjoy. Tomorrow I get cream liquids. Oh, dear coffee how I long for thee. Yum, cant wait
So glad to hear from you and yes, bloated feeling is quite normal. Just take it easy! That was the worst part for me. The uncomfortable feeling. Sip sip sip! Make a game of it. When you are relaxing..watching TV..sip every time you hear the word..umm THE...or something! :) Welcome to the sisterhood!
