Post op was easier for me cause I'm hardly ever hungry

My knees feel better after a bike ride?

You look GREAT!

@@Jamie, just had my 1st post-op appt & got scolded. Doc said NOT cleared for cycling for at least a month and only if I get my protein/water goals met! Said I won't heal & am dehydrated. My bad just trying alternative to walking.

Walking is hard for me as I had surgery from bone cancer in my leg, so riding a bike is less painful for me. I rode this wknd for the first time post op (july23). I rode 19mi Saturday & 21 mi Sunday. I was severely winded & soo thirsty. It took me longer & was harder but I feel good knowing it is possible. I am having a hard time drinking water & protein drinks. I have about 30 oz of water & 11oz protein drink/day & only lost 11lbs

What a transformation. Thx for posting & inspiring others

I'm 9 days post op & I rode my bike 20mi yesterday & 20 mi today. No pain just extremely tired when done. 2hr nap afterwords lol

Thank you & good luck on your new life

I have a Fitbit- charge HR. It's features : counts steps, floors climbed, miles, hours slept, times woken up, water intake, calories burned, track food eaten, heart beat, track excercise, set goals, alarms, caller id for incoming calls, allows you to msg friends, see friend steps taken/compete, and it's a clock. I LOVE IT!

Feeling even better today, 1 day post op. Walking & sipping

Had an easy night in hospital no pain just soreness & thirst

Good luck & speedy recovery!

Good luck Patricia

I was sleeved @ 4 today & gotta agree yucky 1st 4 hrs. I'm up, sipping, and not feeling too shabby. Good luck & a speedy recovery to you!

Plz add me yvetteticas1@aim.com

I sent you a request

Was outta surgery @ 4pm, right now just super thirsty & allot of pressure/bloat. Sipping & took a lap

Took me a while to write back as my backpack was locked away. I feel good, was nauseous when I woke from surgery & when I drank 5 cal lemonade (too sweet). Allot of pressure no real pain & walking a lap felt great. Thx for all the good wishes

I'm in a gown just waiting to start my journey. This has been a life changing experience so far. I am a bone cancer survivor & in remission as of 2 yrs, 5 mos and feel this surgery will help get me to my pre-cancer weight. It was a 3yr fight with chemo & the amputation of my leg at cancer site. Due to loss of mobility, constant hospital stays & steroids I actually gained weight. I am very active with 3 kids & cycling helps but need additional help shedding this weight as I don't want to have beaten cancer only to die later due to being fat.

Me too! Good Luck! Are you on Clear Liquids? July 23rd, from Sunny So Cal!

Good luck May!

Good luck FireWife

I hope I do as good as you. My son is getting married 12 weeks after my surgery (7/23) and I hope to drop some serious lbs by then

Best wishes
