Yesterday, Thursday July 7th I went to my 10 day post-op appointment. I got to the office and had to wait about 20 minutes. Usually I wouldn’t be pissed but I was on an hour break from work. The appointment was 4 minutes long. He basically looked at my incisions and said they look good. He also told me to pub some nail polish remover on my tummy where there are sticky remains from the monitors from the hospital. I was also approved to eat mushy foods so I went to the store right after to get the essentials. I got some potatoes to mash, normal yogurt (not Greek), cottage cheese, shredded cheese and some laughing cow cheese triangles. For dinner I made mashed potatoes and put them in little ½ cup containers to bring to work. It’s perfect. I was able to eat almost the entire ½ cup. I melted some shredded cheese on it (yes, allowed). To work on Friday I brought ½ cup of mashed potatoes and ½ cup of cottage cheese (low-fat, small curd). I was able to eat it all throughout the day.
I also started wearing pants finally. I’ve just been wearing dresses. The location the pants hit on my stomach is right by incisions. Now that they’re less sore, I have been wearing loose pants.
Also, I lost 16.2 pounds.
