What a difference a bit of sleep makes!!!!

Today is day 3 post op, I am feeling so much better. I slept better last night then I did even before surgery. Before surgery I would wake up nearly every hour to pee and have a drink of huge drink of milk and many times something to eat with it.  Last night I woke up to pee and took advantage of being up to get some fluids in. other than being sore when I woke up I felt great.  Today I have been experimenting with beverages that I like within my post op diet limits, clear very low calorie liquids. Lemon crystal lite is my favorite so far. I have tried and like sugar free Jello and sugar free real fruit popsicles.  I have slept a lot of today. One thing that is kinda amazing to me is that so far the smells of food, which were like an aphrodisiac, have not bother me or made me want food. Stefanie and the girls had link sausage and eggs for breakfast and it smelled good but I didn't desire any at all. I sure hope that this does not change when I can eat.  I think most of the pain that I am in is from bruising rather than the operation.

All in all, I feel that I am doing as well as can be expected. I might even be in church in the morning.
