Post-Op Day 5

Alright, so I slept most of the afternoon. Friends who are not calling till I get a bit better, I actually appreciate it. I'm not up for long conversations. My throat has been so sore it hurts to talk or swallow....I'm not thinking clearly either. But man something hit me after the docs visit. I guess it was because my doc showed me the pics of the tissue he took off....OK seven pounds almost of skin and fat...it was a whole OR table full...amazing....so I wondered as all us women do, what do I weight now? Keep in mind I have an incredible amount of swelling and fluid to still get off but when I weighed myself I was 7 pounds higher than when I went in, so if you include the tissue that is gone, I gained 14 pounds. How does that happen to us women? I'm sure if I were a man I would be under 2 at this point...sometimes it sucks being a woman...
