  2. I'm so glad you are considering different ways to improve your health!! good for you! I am 27 years old, I was sleeved on May 9th. I tired easily as you do now. I felt limited and overlooked. Post-op, I find that these first few weeks are a bit lonely for me. I would recommend having surgery in the warm summer months so that you can be as social and out going as possible during your recovery. I was accustomed to networking and working 60 hours a week. Now I have to SLOW DOWN and stay home because I tire easily. The lack of sociability is challenging for me. I chose to believe I am sacrificing six weeks of comfort now to prepare for decades and decades of a life I can savor... I would suggest having a priority in your life that can keep you inspired before surgery, during recovery and beyond such as college courses or Career endeavors. Don't allow "fixing obesity" to be a criteria for moving forward in your life today Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  3. I work in an office and I worked 1/2 a day, on day 8 post-op. Then I did another 1/2 day on day 15 post-op. Then I did 1/2 a day on day 18 post-op. Also, I walk to church on Sundays and spend about 4 hours in my lengthy Baptist service lol. I intend to work four 1/2 days next week. Rebuild your stamina as best you can and keep your managers in the loop. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Low BMI Gastric Sleeve story

    Good for you! I wouldn't worry about avoiding carbs before surgery; try to eat a lot of Protein. You will need these reserves to get through the first 72hours post-op. I was sleeved May 9th and have had a wonderfully smooth recovery process. You'll be glad you made a preventative decision!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
