I guess in the midst of writing all the good and wonderful things that I should also include the trials that I am also enduring. Although they aren't anything big it is all still a part of having the surgery.

My first complaint is constipation. I have never been constipated in my life, but over the weekend I discovered that I am now having problems with it. I believe that it is due to not getting in enough fluids so I am going to try and increase my fluid intake and hopefully that will help. I have also taken some medication to help everything along its journey!

Secondly, I am just ready for some food with some consistancy! I feel like I am going to turn in to a bowl of soup or broth. Although I know that this is all a part of the process it has still been a little frustrating at times. I have my first followup appointment on August 20th and I am hoping at that time they will tell me that I can start to move on to some different things.

That is all for now! Hope everyone is doing well! Talk with you soon.
