My first day back at school was kind of a wash, overall. I woke up feeling less than great, and for whatever reason, did not have my usual morning BM.
I'm in cosmetology school, so basically, I spend an hour in the morning learning theory, and then take clients for the rest of the day. Of course, the two weeks I missed were the weeks when we began to cover anatomy and physiology, so that's what I was thrown into this morning. Luckily, I'm a somewhat sharp tack, and remember a good bit from sophomore biology. I think the truly exhausting part was having 30 people come up to me, individually, and play twenty questions. How are you feeling, how much have you lost, what can you eat...they mean well, but I'd rather be left alone. Although just about everyone said they could see the weight loss in my face. I confess, I spent most of the day looking at myself in the mirror--my face and neck both look much slimmer, and my skin is looking down right radiant.
I was lucky that I did not have to take any clients today. Honestly, I'm not sure if I could have handled it. I was nauseous all day. It could be because I am slowly starting vitamins, or because of my period, or really who knows. But I just felt bad. I'm hoping tomorrow will be better, because I'm sure I'll have at least one or two clients. When I got home, I was exhausted. And still nauseous. Tried to take a nap, but no luck. Whatever my sister is making for dinner makes me want to gag. I finally broke down and took a zofran, so I'm hoping that helps.
Oh! I did get my numbers from my surgeon. We agreed on a cc of 125 before my surgery, but he never really went over stomach size. He used a 34 bougie, but in his words, he doesn't do them very tightly so it's more like a 36-38, which I'm pleased with. Now if only it would settle down!
