Day 10

Its day 10 and well I would really like to sleep more than any thing..I cannot seem to kick this being sleepy thing! Not sure what the deal is.
I 86'ed my vitamins that the Dr gave me because after my surgery they started making me puke so I started taking Flintstones gummies, taste is 10X's better. I did also start taking Prilosec for the heartburn and it has been amazing.

Lets see this morning I manages to choke down half a shake, blah!!! same at lunch!! Maybe I can get a whole 8 oz at dinner. The taste is just so eww. I bought strawberry and Banana to try and mix it up a bit but, I am just beyond over it! I want real food! But I know I still need the protine more now than ever before, could be why I am so sleepy. Duhhh, and I and graduating soon, scary..lol

I look around and I see all of these skinny people and I wonder if they know how easy they have it? To never have to go to the "big girl" section of the clothing store or be looked at funny when your eating an ice cream cone. I am not having like an emotional moment or anything like that but I always wonder.

Day 9

I so wish I would have known how to do this a long time ago. Then I could have vented long ago. Oh well here I am venting now. I have now discovered Japanese clear broth which moved my bowels, which was a great relief all by itself! Prilosec is my second best friend. Childrens Gummy vitamins are my 3rd best friend. So there they are my 3 current best friends since my surgery!
