Surgery Update

Hey y'all.

So my surgery was yesterday. Everything is fine and it went well, but let me tell you, I feel like absolute crap. The anesthesia made me feel nauseated, I'm really sore, and it hurts to move and breathe. Yesterday I attempted to keep up with my diet but it was bananas and milk day and I just couldn't do it. I wanted to throw up after my 4th banana. So I've decided to take a short break from my diet. I'll most likely pick it back up tomorrow or Sunday, but no guarantees. I've been taking my pain medication and it's been helping a little, but I'm not supposed to do any strenuous activity for a few weeks.

So anyways, I'll still post what I'm eating for the next several days.

Yesterday's diet consisted of:
- 4 bananas
- Water
- 1 glass of milk
- Minestrone soup

Today's diet consisted of:
Breakfast:
- Whole wheat toast with peanut butter and butter on top
- Orange juice
Lunch:
- A peanut butter and strawberry jelly sandwich on wheat bread
- 1 pear
- 1 green apple
- Water
Snack:
- Some chicken noodle soup
Dinner:
- Tortellini alfredo with a fuji apple chicken salad and bread from Panera
- Water

I'm starting to feel a little bit more normal, but I'm still very sore. It hurts to move my arms a lot of the time. In fact, I need assistance to even be able to sit up so I can get out of my bed to use the bathroom! It sucks, but I'll continue posting so you can know what I'm up to. Just because I can barely move doesn't mean I need to eat tons of junk food! Especially because I don't want to gain back all of the weight I've already lost!

Anyways, thanks for the prayers and for reading my blog. I appreciate all of you very much.
