Well it's been two weeks and two days since I had my tonsils and uvula removed. Still have some pain but at least I'm off the Vicodin. Lost 20lbs the first week since all I was consuming was water and 4tsp of pudding every 5 hours so I could take my pain meds. Now that I'm eating again, I've gained 3lbs back. I'm going to assume it's water weight since I'm still eating little amounts of soft(er) foods. Water is still my drink of choice since it helps to rid the back of my throat of the spit that I can't seem to swallow on it's own.
I tried swimming today and found that trying to hold my breath to go under the water was still painful so maybe next week. I'm also looking forward to getting back to working out and even bought myself two new 5lbs kettlebells for when I can start, again, maybe next week.
