Hey chickies,
I'm home from my gallbladder removal surgery! I had it first thing this morning. It wasn't so bad, I was up walking around 1 hour after surgery. I'm in pain NOW, mostly from the gas they use to fill up your stomach during surgery. Freaking hurts worse than a damn gallbladder attack OMG! I'm trying to burp the air out but it's not working out so well lol. They gave me T 3's, I took one when I got home, and am really trying not to take anymore, because I'm not down with being constipated!
We will see if I can handle the pain. They cut me in 4 different places, and used STAPLES
to close me up. Probably because my fat jiggly belly would not handle the stitches tape, they would probably break open haha. Now I'm worried about getting the staples out, I heard it hurts?!
So I am just taking the rest of the week to relax and hang out at home. I probably won't weigh myself for a couple weeks, since they pumped me full of fluids today, and I'm sure my my eating will be whack for the next few days. I weighed in at 240 before I left for surgery this morning (the hospital scale said 238! but I'm going by MY scale
)
*One good note, my blood pressure is practically normal these days!
Back when I was 350 lbs, it was always like 160-170-something over 90 or 100-something! And I was under 21 then!!!
Today my average BP was 122 over 82ish
The nurse said my BP is perfect. Yay weight loss!*
