    Are you sure you are drinking enough ? I haven't had this - but I was sleeved a few days after you.

    Back to work

    I chose my schedule. My doctor agreed if that's what I wanted. I have been fine - which I knew I would be. A little tired after work but I haven't missed a day. I walk 12k steps a day. I've lost 14lbs. I have 2 small boys to take care of also - sink or swim and I'm swimming and doing great !!! It's different for everyone I suppose !!!
  4. Oh my god this is horrible. I am so sorry to hear this. I wish I could offer you help .... my heart breaks for you. Hugs

    I had breast cancer 4 years ago. You are tough to get back to work thru chemo and radiation. 5 days will be more than enough for you !!! Good luck !!!

    That's awesome !!!! I think we all can manage our weight if we really work at it and learn ( well me anyway - I honestly didn't understand as much as I know now )

    Back to work

    I did well. I'm an Ops Mgr at a large trucking company. I have 74 people that report directly to me. We are in a busy time of year. I didn't have pain / I was sore. I think the secret is staying active. I am also a single mom w 2 little guys and I don't have back up. I kept my protein intake up, took walks during the day ( 12k steps a day ) and stayed positive. I'm doing really well. I had my one week appt Thursday and am down 11 lbs. my vitals are all good. I didn't have any medical issues prior to surgery - I was simply overweight and couldn't lose on my own. This was a good decision for me.
  10. Every.single.person is an INSPIRATION for me !!!!! Thank you all so much !!!!
