Try and walk walk walk. Any spare time during work and before and after work. The fresh air will help so much. I've been tired too but I get up and walk and honestly I feel better than I ever thought

Try and walk daily - a few times a day. Losing 14 lbs is awesome !!! And After surgery do everything you can to get up and walk. If only for a few steps - keep moving you will feel so good. I've been walking and walking ( thankfully I have a couple dogs ) and I feel really good. Walking before surgery helps your body heal faster .... Good luck !!! I'm so excited to be part of this with everyone !!! I have my follow up w surgeon this afternoon - very exciting

I had surgery Friday 9/11. I went home same day. Minimal pain, no nausea. Drove to grocery store after I got home. I think it depends on how active you are prior to surgery. Walk as much as you can. I'm 2 days post op & feel great !!
** Sip sip is tough - that didn't sink in when I was told.
** Tying my shoes for a walk - not great.
** I love Popsicles now - sugar free tropical flavors.
** how amazing it feels to get moving, I walked 9k steps today - and feel really good. No longer taking pain meds. Stay active before and walk as much as your body allows after - you will feel great

emiko_oz got a reaction from sbg224 in Surgery today !
Took Emend ( nausea ) 0230
Checked in 0530
Surgery 0630
Wok up 0915
Not nauseous ( due to Emend )
Walked, chatted with nurses and doctor.
Check out 1345 ( 145p )
Been home almost 7 hours. Slight pain where drain is - have been walking dogs and made dinner for my family !!!
Nurse had this surgery and we compared notes about Emend ! We both went home the same day as surgery. I'm not a sales rep for Emend - however, I hate the nauseous feeling and this is the best !!!
So happy for me and for everyone on this journey ... thank you guys and gals support !!!
