I think I might have over done it a bit yesterday as I have an occasional sharp pain on my left side. Its near one of the wound site but under the skin. It feels a bit like a stitch ( as in after running...I remember that from along time ago LOL!)
Food wise I tried my mash, gravy and mint sauce but found the gravy was a bit greasy after the 3rd spoon, but it was ok.
Its the not being hungry thats odd isn't it....having to remember to eat something or drink . Got my phone set to remind me I'm that daft
How are you doing? What are you managing to eat now? I hope you're not having so much pain and discomfort as you were

Come on lbs!!!
Oh wow your mash dinner sounds lovely!
Im much better thanks. Pain is managable now, able to actually pick things off the floor etc too. I feel able to move more so thats good. Actually was able to sleep in my bed on my side last night! Yipee
Im still on liquids, so my days meals are jellys, soup, hot choc and water.
I cant wait for tuesday when i should be allowed onto the pureed stage

Thats great news, I managed on my side plumped up with pillows and as you say being able to to a bit now will make all the difference. I tried adding a bit of curry paste to one of the soups as they can be a bit bland and it was yummy. Tropicana orange and raspberry juice is refreshing for something different too.
My second week is continue fluids and add very sloppy purees. Then onto puree for 2 weeks, you seem to be going to that stage from fluids only. Strange how they all have different ways isn't it?
