Hi everyone, I'm one month and one week post op. I just went back to work Monday now all of a sudden my legs are starting to be swollen. Did any experience that?
-
Did they swell before the surgery? I know that my ankles used to swell if I sat too long. I haven't had any problem with swelling since my surgery. Do you sit all day? There are some exercises that can be done while your sitting in order to prevent swelling, if that is what youare doing. But before doing anything I would check with your Surgeon just to be safe.

I feel like I am in a race with the end of summer to get in as much pool time as possible.

You are picking the tool for that works best for you. Having the surgery, whichever one is chosen, only works if your commited to changing your lifestyle. I have seen and heard more than a few comments and questions you are receiving as I was on the receiving end of them too. Disregard those comments and questions, just concentrate on you. Best wishes.

Don't do it! It is nutritional suicide! I started to fall into that stalled trap, only for a day or two, but it was not pretty. My stomach was upset and it I woke me up fast how could I do this to me? Start thinking that you have been doing it and you will do it! I did liquids for a coup,e of days to get my system back on track and have not looked back in two months. Hang in there, before you know it the scale will show that you have lost 60+ pounds! You are capable, you have already proved it! Go! Go! Go!

A great day at the Renaissance Festival. Walked over 11,000 steps, shared turkey leg with my hubby and drank lots of water. I got this!!

Newbie, feeling out of my element

Now on day 6 post surgery. What a roller coaster. My support person went back to work after being home with me for a week and I am kind of at a loss as to what to do. Feeling very depressed but haven't been able to take my normal antidepressant because of the capsule, though got tabs I can crush and mix with something. Need to get back stabilized on this. I think I do feel physically better, No pain, no reflux, just an emotional wreck. Don't feel that I can talk with anyone about this.

Listen to @ShrinkingPeach and @casey63! What they are saying is so true, I too must take an anti-depressant due to Post Traumatic Stree related incident. Think positive thoughts and know that it isn't always a great day, but you have made a positive change for you! Every day presents something new and the surgery will bring so many wonderful new days the bad times will get further and further apart from each other. It is your me time now and embrace the fact that you are taking care of you because you have earned everything good to yourself!

9 Months Post-op Today! Down 60 pounds since surgery.

4 days post op. Not sure how but I have a cold and sore throat. No fun. I was able to visit the Dr office today to get protein shakes and made a trip to Costco so I think I am doing pretty good.

Has anyone bought a yonana machine? This looks like an interesting concept.

Still surprised every day that I did this. I am so thankful that I finally did. Life is changing for me in crazy ways. Had my tarot read Sunday and was told that I was coming to the end of a cycle in my life. I am taking that to mean my weight. I am so ready for change!

Today is a Great Day!! Reaching my 25lb mark!!!!
