day 4...

well today is day 4 and i am feeling pretty good! just taking it easy and trying to stay warm! it is freezing outside! i got a little over-whelmed today when i couldn't clean the litter boxes and break the water up in the buckets outside for the horses. but after talking to mom she said she can help me out and not to worry! i just cant bend over yet, not enough to do what needs to be done! as far as eating is concerned, i'm not hungry at all and when i tried some jello i could barely eat a tiny bit and only a few small bites of popsicle. so for now im just staying focused on hydration! its a task in of itself, having to sip constantly because i cant take big drinks! but its getting better each day! i decided to try a little decaf coffee today and its not too bad, just doesnt help the thirst part, i really have just been thirsty so much since the surgery! hopefully that part will improve! i need to also take some measurements of my body cause i forgot about that part before. got pics, but not measurements! anywho, im off to get some water cause after that coffee im dieing!!

  1. I'm glad to hear things went well. I was wondering how you were doing. Have you tried drinking Propel or Powerade Zero since you are so thirsty? They are both really good for quenching the thirst. They replace Electrolytes and vitamins/minerals too. Both are low in sugar, and no caffeine.

    Don't push yourself to do too much at once. You need to let your body heal properly so be careful. Merry Christmas.
