Saturday and Drug induced bliss

I do not in any way condone using drugs improperly, but I gotta tell you getting an organ removed is a justified reason AND they sure do work. I am tired and sleepy, but feel a little better. I slept 7 hours with only 3 interruptions. That was a great improvement over the last 2 nights where I was up every hour. My wonderful hubby is taking such good care of me. My girls keep wanting to see my belly and the boo boos. I guess I don't need to worry about wound infection since they look at it 3-4 times a day.

I ate fettuccine Alfredo last night without guilt. I only ate 1/2 cup and 1/2 cup of pasta and pesto. I even was able to eat a few bites of salad. It's amazing to me how much I miss veggies.  For snack I had gold fish. Thank God for goldfish crackers. I drank a sprite, but mostly I had water because it tastes better for the most part. My nanny made me an apple crisp. I ate some with fat free vanilla yogurt.  It was healthy dessert since the crisp was made with splenda and low fat cinnamon graham crackers. It tasted so great!  I ended up with 1627 calories which is way more than I usually do. My LoseIt says I shouldn't have more than 1300 for 2 pounds a week loss. Obviously I didn't exercise.

I got up this am and had cheerios. I'm not sure that was too smart. We'll see. Also had a little coffee and it tasted good. but, my belly is starting to hurt. Still waiting on #2 to happen. I'm sure you're all on the edge of your seats and wondering so I'll keep you posted. Sorry for TMI. You have to remember I talk about this stuff with patients all day. Good news is my hydration is improving. My pee is almost clear again.

I actually got up and moved around a little this am, straightened up and sorted through some mail, but about 40 min was all I could stand and now I'm back to bed. Hope you all have a great weekend. Do something active for me since I can't. My mom took the kiddos to the Texas fair and I'm sure they'll be stuffed with friend nastiness and filthy but happy when they get home. Hubby and I are going to watch some TIVO. I love TIVO. If I wasn't already happily married, I might just marry my TIVO. It's an HD dual tuner TIVO and can record 500 hours. Ha ha. Now I know you're jealous. The perks of being married to an engineer and techno geek. I love geeks!  They are awesome.

I'm sure we'll watch some football at some point this weekend. OU has a bye, but there are plenty of good games. GO COCKS!  I'm not a huge South Carolina fan, but there's nothing more fun than screaming, "Hit em hard Cocks!" or "Score, Cocks, Score!"  Plus they're playing the Tide and it'd be nice to see them go down.

I am a little bummed as I have tickets to the Boys game tomorrow. We play the Titans, but I seriously doubt I'll feel like going. That means that my husband will take the Boy. He's excited as he hasn't been to the Death Star yet. So, they'll have some male bonding. As if my nearly 13 year old needs a reason for his testosterone to spike. Lord. I'm not ready for all that.

Anyway, have a super weekend. I will as long as I keep the pain pills coming. Unbelievable how bad it hurts. I don't even want to think about how bad the old procedure would be where they open you up. Ack.

Eat right and move! I mean it!!
