Day one has been ok. I have been in a little more pain then I expected. It hasn’t been overly bad just a bit debilitating, I have to move slowly when I stand up and walk. Laying flat on my back is also a little uncomfortable.

When it comes to eating I have not been hungry at all. I have had to force myself to drink. I am on a clear fluid diet for 2 weeks and can also have shakes. I am not too worried about it, having no appetite definitely helps!

I got to see the cuts today when the nurse changed my dressings, they are not too bad. The main one where my port was placed is about 5cm long and the other 3 are small at about 1cm each. Not that it worries me, I would rather be thin with scars than fat! LOL so between my gallbladder, banding and c-section scars I doubt I will be wearing a bikini in the future!

So day one has actually been ok, I am feeling really positive about it. Now off to bed for a goodnight sleep.
