Cheater!!




I couldn't take it anymore...I ate half of a scrambled egg. At least it was a good cheat choice but I just couldn't stop my stomach from growling anymore.

I'm a bit concerned...will I ever enjoy food again? When ever I start eating or more like drinking I get the uncomfortable feeling and I just kind of muscle thru it. Will I ever enjoy eating again?

OH MY GOODNESS...I JUST WANT TO BURP!


It is the largest burp ever and it will not exit my body! How can I get this thing out of there? I walk around and it starts to creep up and then grips my insides in this incredible cramp and stays in! UGH! GET OUT BURP!

Port Incision...OUCH!

Feeling better today

I've only taken one dose of pain medication today and I'm feeling a bit better. I'm finding myself hungry. I thought I wasn't supposed to be hungry for weeks!?! My stomach actually growls, that's how I know i'm hungry.

Today I've eaten (drank)
1 Choc Protein drink (3/4 of it)
1 SF choc pudding
1 Van Protein Drink (3/4 of it)
1/4 c. of creamy tomato soup
1 Crystal Light Popsicle
1/4 of a Campbells soup at hand - tomato


My port area is bruised and painful but other than that, I'm feeling pretty good. I do have the runs though. I was so afraid of not pooping and now I have the the runs. My stomach just feels outta whack, like it's not in the right spot, almost.

Heating pad and liquid loratab...

I get drowsy pretty quick, so this will be short. My incisions are pretty painful and the swelling around my port is hurting. I think the gas in my shoulders has worked is way out. I've actually passed gas which makes me feel great but hurts like hell to push out! Sorry if that's too much info but it does hurt!

I've eaten 1 whole jello cup today, not l in one sitting of course but that's been my diet. Ice cubes and teeny, tiny bites of jello. Oh and I had some chick broth...not a lot, maybe a quarter of a cup.

The heating pad has been my best friend. I turn it on and the off and then on and then off. I take my pain meds, switch on the heating pad, get comfy and fall asleep.

I hope I feel better tomorrow. I get to move to full liquids tomorrow...I'm looking forward to pudding and a protein shake. I think i'm hungry but it's hard tell. People around me eat and I'd love to have some but I know it'd hurt like hell and I'm not really hungry. I guess I will be fighting head hunger sooner than I thought.

Pain meds are starting to kick in and I'm getting droopy. Have a good night...
